Hello,
We need to configure a value set provider that limits the content of the Categories; we will use this on both our Filed Against attribute as well as several other Category-based attributes. We're pulling the info from a REST call to RTC. While I can configure an HTTP Value Set Provider to return a set of results, you cannot use an HTTP Value Set Provider with a Category-based attribute (it doesn't appear as an option in the dropdown on the config). You also cannot use Dependent Enumerations with them. I have written a script to try and do it as you can select a script-based value set for Filed Against and other Category attributes. I do not know if this will actually work as I do not know what value to return; would it be the name, id, itemId, or some other value that should come back?
dojo.provide("com.zions.valuesetprovider.categoryfilteralpha");
dojo.require("com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.connectors.HttpConnectorParameters");
(function() {
dojo.declare("com.zions.valuesetprovider.categoryfilteralpha", null, {
getValueSet: function(attributeId, workItem, context){
console.log("Going to do the parameters now");
var params= new com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.connectors.HttpConnectorParameters();
params.url= "https://clm.cs.zionsbank.com/ccm/rpt/repository/workitem?fields=workitem/category[projectArea/itemId=_TofgQPfREeOpj9QcDboLoA]/*";
params.xpath= "//workitem/category";
params.columnXpaths= ["./id"];
params.columnIds= ["id"];
params.ignoreInvalidCertificates=true;
params.useOAuth=true;
var connector= context.getDataConnector("HttpConnector");
var values= connector.get(params);
console.log("length of returned values: " + values.length);
/* none of my console logs ever show up for this script */
var result= [];
while(values.hasNext()){
var entry= values.next();
var getPushed= entry.getById("id");
result.push(getPushed);
}
return result;
}
});
})();
I have enabled debugging but the console isn't showing any feedback from my script, hard to tell if it's taking well. I could easily change the params.columnXpaths to have this return any of the values in the XML result.
