I am using RPE 2.0.1 and CLM 6.0.1. I would like to pull the approval data from a single work item.

Ultimately I would like the output to look like this:

Approval Name             Approver             Status
Review 1                       Joe                      Pending
Review 1                       Sue                      Approved
Review 2                       Harry                      Pending
Review 2                      Tom                      Pending
Review 2                       Dick                      Pending
Review 3                       Jim                      Pending

Icing on the cake would be the date the approver approved

Thoughts?

You can simply use approvals element (com.ibm.team.workitem.Approval) as in the screen shot attached.

But icing this cake is not straight forward. :) You need to use JavaScript - add modified date (workitem/workItem/itemHistory/modified) to an array and find the date the approver approved.

You can test this using https://server:port/ccm/rpt/repository/workitem/workItem/id/123 as data source URL.
You may refer https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ReportsRESTAPI
I have not tried using ApprovalDescriptors element, you can also try that.

First, thank you.
Second, can you post the query for $5 and the full path of the text for that cell?

My next step is to figure out the item history.

Thanks again!

I ended up with the following:
$290 = workitem/workItem/approvals/approvalDescriptor/approvals/approvalDescriptor
$291 = workitem/workItem/approvals/approvalDescriptor/approvals/approver
$292 = workitem/workItem/approvals/approvalDescriptor/approvals/approvalDescriptor

I had generated sample output before posting the screenshot. Please let me know if you are still unable to get the output. I can provide the sample template.

I was able to get the information out.
Now on to the dates.

Thank you!
