Hi,
Is it possible to find the history of changes done to the Work item Categories in a project area?

Accepted answer
Even though the tool does not provide a way to see the history, that information seems to be there in the database.
If you really need someone to blame for the change ;-) and you are willing to write a script,
use this Java Client code:
//Retrieve the previous states of the ICategory cat
List<ICategoryHandle> history = repo.itemManager().fetchAllStateHandles(cat, null);
for (ICategoryHandle hisHandle : history) {
ICategory his = (ICategory) repo.itemManager().fetchCompleteState(hisHandle, null);
his.getModifiedBy()...
his.modified().toString()...
}

Comments Hi Miguel, As per your suggestion, Do you think that Sunita is looking for History of a Attribute Type[Category] ? If Yes, she is not trying to get History of Category type of an Attribute. She needs to find the History of Work Item Categories from the Project Area tab. [Open Projectarea -> Work Item Categories tab]. you could see list of Categories created by Admins. Thanks Sudar Hi Sudar,
The code I provided is for retrieving the History of Work Item Categories from the Project Area tab. [Open Projectarea -> Work Item Categories tab].

Miguel is correct ... this function is available (as his code illustrates), but is not currently available in the GUI.
Hi Miguel, I have used your code snippet to get the History of changes done on the "Work Item Categories" tab in the Projectarea. I use Java Client APIs here, Can you help me how to retrieve the previous states of the ICategory Object ? and how to define the ProjectArea specifically here ? Thanks Sudar Hi Sudar.
I think you need to spend some time playing with the RTC Java Client API.
I would suggest to follow this article to get the IProjectArea object:
and go from there.
This article is also a good entry point
Hi Miguel, I was stuck with the logic how to get the list of changes applied to the specific Category. I just tried with the different flow. I got the result now :) Thank you so much. Sudar Hi Miguel and Geoffrey,
Thank you both for the help and support provided. Sudar was able to get the data using the code provided.
