We have a hands-off build process that mandates a work item to record the build against, but following a successful build we have to manually click on 'Associate an existing work item' to tie the build result to the work item. We have CLM 4.0.7 but I can see in the docs that this is also true for 5.0.2.
I would like to do this programmatically in the build file but the supplied Ant tasks don't provide this. If anybody knows a method to do this I'd be delighted to hear, or if they have developed a custom Ant task that they'd be prepared to share. My only other recourse is to request a product enhancement and that could take months or years, assuming it's accepted as 'a good thing to do'! Can anybody help? |

I tested and realized I got the direction of the build links wrong. Here is the fixed version.

Cliff,
I created a work item command line https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2015/01/12/a-rtc-workitem-command-line/ that can do it. I am currently working on a next version that fixes some bugs and enhances the capabilities. The current version should at least allow you to create a work item including that link from the build result ID. |
![]() Hi Cliff, Ralph is it possible to get a copy of the implementation you created for updating a specific workitem with a link from the build. So that as you execute the JBE ant script, the build links itself to the 'Reported Against Builds' of a specific work item. Thanks.

For all I know you could use the work item commandl line, as already explained above.

Dashboards and work items are no longer publicly available, so some links may be invalid. We now provide similar information through other means. Learn more here.
