Rational DOORS Next Generation api
Hello,
Is there an RDNG API which is sort of similar with the RTC plain java api which can be used to connect to RDNG, get the list of artifacts, and extract artifacts data and/or attribute fields values? Any reference for that?
I found this reference https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RMExtensionsAPI502#DocVersion (Client extension API for the Requirements Management (RM) application) but i think it can be used for extension only.

Note that this thread is DNG specific.
-
RRC Reportable API - creating custom reports to be run from DNG or RPE
-
OSLC RM V2 API - the open standard way to programmaticaly integrate with DOORS Next Generation, there is an elaborate workshop to get you started here OSLC Workshop article. These programs can be from any language that support HTTP REST calls, e.g. Java, C# etc. Hence these are more flexible to run and can read and update DNG data, as part of a web server, or standalone, but have some limitations set by the current OSLC standard, for example module support.

and additionally, there is the so called client extension capability, these are Javascript extension that generally added as widgets you can run from the dashboard, and can be used to view and edit DNG data. It's more tailored to DNG, so has better module support, but is limited to run in a browser/javascript environment.
