They have all the code examples you need to achieve this.

Hi, to find work items by id or other parameter simply use work item query programmatically. Links (to e.g. Ralph Schoon's blog) and code snippets amply shared like in this post: https://jazz.net/forum/questions/72975/getting-work-items-through-plain-java-api Probably best to write a utility method such as getWorkItemById(String myId) that uses the query concept. Please post a new question if you need anything in particular.
