Help to get RRC Reportable Rest API xpath working - need more info

0
Henkie Maritz (37●5●12) | asked Dec 23 '15, 4:18 a.m.
Hi

My company is a rational customer using RTC/Jazz+Doors version 5.0.2.

I am really battling to get the REST API working for xpath searches and cannot find any documentation.

I have founded this:
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RRCReportableRestAPI

The xpath syntax is supposedly this:
https://jazz-server:9443/rm/publish/resources?fields=xpath

So, I tried the following:
https://jazz-server:9443/rm/publish/text?fields=//attribute:customAttribute[attribute:value='1TXN77'] and
https://jazz-server:9443/rm/publish/resources?fields=//attribute:customAttribute[attribute:value='1TXN77']

Knowing that it should at least return the following artifact:

Please help me.

Thanks
Henkie

 According to the RM REST API documentation (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RRCReportableRestAPI ), xpath has not been implemented.  If you look under xpath, the description reads: "Allows the ?fields= argument, but does not alter the content that the REST API returns."  Based on my testing, this seems to be the case.  The API accepts the xpath syntax but does nothing with it.

I'm not sure why IBM chose to document xpath as an option if the code to implement the filtering is not in place.  It only serves to confuse.

I too wish xpath was implemented on the RM side as it is with RTC.  It would be a huge help, especially when returning resources for modules, which can be quite bloated.

 It is very confusing !. I am looking for a useful example of the use of XPath in the RRC, in reference to the Reportable Wiki. It is very strage, why IBM  wrote about XPath and don't implement it.
