Creating workitems through java code
![]()
Hi All,
I am trying to create work items through code. I got some help in the net and used the same code. I have used this line: IWorkItemType workItemType = workItemClient.findWorkItemType(projectArea, typeIdentifier, null); where type identifier can be a "task" or "defect". It works fine for these 2 but not for other work item types. What typeIdentifier do I have to pass if I want to create a work item of type Change Request. These mappings available somewhere for all the work item types? Thanks for any help! Regards, Arshad |

It works for all types, provided you know the type identifier. The type identifier can for example be found in the Eclipse or web project administration UI:
![]() You can see that the ID does not have to be even similar to the name of the type. In case of this project areas process a Story work item type has the ID "com.ibm.team.apt.workItemType.story". |
