Changes to the Rewind API and the MCP server — new endpoints and tools,
parameter changes, and anything that could affect an existing integration.
Entries are newest first, and each is tagged by area (API or MCP) and
whether it's a breaking change.
For general Rewind product updates, see the
Product Changelog.

The job_id format in List Backups (list-backups) has changed (i.e. from job_q7Xz2Kd9pLm4Rn8Tv0Wc1a to 7a2e4f73-332c-4ca9-ad63-cf268d2dcc46) for Azure DevOps, Bitbucket, Confluence, Entra ID, GitHub, Jira, Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Miro, monday.com and Okta. | API | Yes |
Event history endpoint is now available — list an account's completed backups, restores, copies and syncs, each with success, failure and skip counts per item type (list-events). Filter by event type and by when the event finished. Not available for Shopify, BigCommerce, Intuit or Trello accounts, which return 422. | API | No |

Content endpoints are now available — search backed-up items and read their versions (search-items, list-item-versions, get-item-version). Requires the Advanced or Enterprise edition of Rewind Backups (a Rewind subscription, not an Atlassian plan); requests from other accounts return 403. | API | No |
Content MCP tools added — search_items, list_item_versions, get_item_version (same Rewind Backups edition requirement). | MCP | No |
Rate limiting is now documented — the API returns 429 Too Many Requests with Retry-After and X-RateLimit-* headers when you exceed your per-key allowance. | API | No |
