JIRA REST API returns 404

[Angel Montenegro]

Hi, I'm trying to use the JIRA rest API to get a list of all projects, however, for all queries that i tried it returns 404 status.

In example http://<host>/rest/api/latest/project should return all project, however, it returns 404.

How do I know if the REST API is enabled? Shold the user be an administrator to access do REST calls?

The REST is not supported on jira 4.1.2, see the versions history
