Is there any way to read the work item history using RTC Java API's?

Hi

Does RTC JAVA API provides the functionality to read the work item history like , who has changed the 1) particular work item state 2) attribute and 3) the date/time when it has been changed for every change in the work item.

Look at the methods for ItemManager in the API doc.   In particular the fetch methods.

very _sparse_ snippet:

         // workItem is a particular work item already fetched from repository
         IAuditableHandle auditableHandle = (IAuditableHandle) workItem.getItemHandle();
         IItemManager itemManager = repository().itemManager();
         ...
         handles = itemManager.fetchAllStateHandles( auditableHandle, null);
             List<IWorkItem> workItems = new ArrayList<IWorkItem>();
             
             workItems = itemManager.fetchCompleteStates(handles, null);

You can now iterate workItems and get the attributes you wish to examine, each of which is a historic view of the starting work item.

Hi Kevin

Thanks for the solution. I tried but found that it is always giving the last state of the work item for every instance of the work item history but I need the copy of the work item for every time when the work item is saved.

Not an expert on this, but history should represent a workitem when it was saved.  It makes no logical sense that an attribute change is recorded w/o the work item being saved, whether by clicking the Save button on a UI or calling the save() method of an editable work item in a user-written program.
