Any API's available to Implement RTC from scratch
![]()
Hello Team,
Currently we are using non-IBM tools for defect tracking.
Now we are planning to implement RTC for defect tracking. For this I need the below information
1. Looking for integration between RTC and project planning tools(ALM)
2. Looking for integration between RTC and source control ()
3. Migration of the data from existing defect tracking tool to RTC.
Please suggest any API's are available to achieve the above tasks for smooth implementation of RTC from end to end project execution.
Thanks,
Mohan

Are you only implementing RTC for defect tracking? Please consider also using it for source control and planning, as it has these capabilities.
As for the APIs, REST API https://jazz.net/forum/questions/20680/rtc-api-documentation and Java API: http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/03/20/understanding-and-using-the-rtc-java-client-api/ are available. Out-of-the-box integrations with some source control and tracking software are also available, as well as migration mechanisms. Please let me know which exact systems do you use for this, so I can suggest a solution. Mohan Rao selected this answer as the correct answer
Comments Thanks Piotr for your quick responce:
I want to bring couple of points to your notice
1. We are using different tools for different projects like jiraa, QC and CA Service Desk manager.
2. For defect tracking we have customized screens and fields which are not available in RTC. I heard that RTC has global screens which can not be altered. Is it true?
3. Coming to source control, If I use RTC as my defect tracking tool can I use any build tools?
4. Our required is, we are running continues builds and for every defect the status should be changed by the build only. for this again I need a integration between build and defect tracking. I don't think currently RTC can do this task automatically. I don't want to change the status manually.

On top of Piotr answer - RTC uses OSLC. You can use OSLC to integrate them if your tool also uses OSLC.
