Is there a Baseline ID?


Rafael Rezende (431823) | asked Jun 24 '15, 9:41 a.m.
If I "Copy URL" from a snapshot in the RTC Client, I'm given the following link:
https://localhost:9443/ccm/resource/itemOid/com.ibm.team.scm.BaselineSet/_0xuLvRNAEeSbf8w7MLC2DQ

This is later, in the browser, redirected to:
https://localhost:9443/ccm/web/projects/PA#action=com.ibm.team.scm.browseSnapshot&id=_0xuLvRNAEeSbf8w7MLC2DQ

If I click a component in this snapshot, I can see that the content (Repository Files) corresponds to that of the respective baseline, as I would expect. However, the link is the following:
https://localhost:9443/ccm/web/projects/PA#action=com.ibm.team.scm.browseElement&snapshotItemId=_0xuLvRNAEeSbf8w7MLC2DQ&componentItemId=_Yh2X4fCqEeObWsUTO4wjeQ&path=/

That means, the web service refers to a unique baseline by using two keys: snapshot ID and component ID.
Isn't there a unique baseline ID I could use instead?

Also, IMO, the interface shown in the last link lacks a quite useful information: the baseline number/name. It shows on top that I'm viewing the Snapshot X, but I need to go one step back to confirm what is the Baseline I'm viewing.

In the Eclipse client, there is a 'Copy URL' action. This URL will give you the itemID (UUID) of the baseline.

Note: I also created the following work item to track what you observed: Issues in the snapshot page (484857)
