How can I use External Value for Enumerations of Work Items attributes ?
I can define External Value for Enumerations of Work Items attributes.
How can I display or export the external value ? For example, enumeration "Priority" has the following literals, "Unassigned", "Low", "Medium", and "High" I assigned external values Unassigned=0, Low=1, Medium=2, High=3. Then I would like to display external values 0,1,2, and 3 not Unassigned, Low, Medium, and High And export external values 0,1,2, and 3 not Unassigned, Low, Medium, and High to csv files. Is it possible ? The purpose for which you want to realize it, numbers are easier to treat in a spreadsheet than literal. |

Hello,
my understanding is that external values are to be used by clients like OSLC.
See https://jazz.net/library/article/1002 (go to "Enumeration Literals")
where you may find examples like:
<oslc:allowedValue rdf:resource="https://rtc:9443/ccm/oslc/enumerations/_FckdEKD8EeGCjPo2EBGANQ/complexity/10"/>
For your CSV export concern, I guess there is no magic solution here.
You can either export the Label or the internal value.
You may have to either change the priority label to numeric values,
or write a macro that will map labels to numeric values.
Thanks,
Eric
