As Robbie noted, the REST interface was removed in 2.26.0. You can find the original discussion regarding removal here [1].
As I understand it, here are the essential reasons for removing it: - The dependencies had fallen woefully out-of-date and nobody was willing to put in the effort to fix them since there were some breaking changes along the way. - The STOMP protocol is ubiquitous, simple, standardized, and can be used in almost every circumstance and environment where REST might be used. - REST messaging is not portable because there's no standard messaging API for REST. This is generally bad for users as it locks them in to a specific broker. - For simple use-cases (e.g. basic send & receive) it's easy these days to create your own REST interface and then implement messaging behind that. Since the REST interface is in the user's control then portability isn't an issue. - It's a bit of a pain to set up as it requires manually building a WAR file. This wasn't a great user experience and limited adoption. You are, of course, still free to use the REST interface WAR from 2.25.0 with any newer version.
