Help getting a requirement using OSLC and Global Configurations

I am trying to get a Requirements data using OSLC and Global Configurations.

I know that if I use the direct link to an item, eg:

https://Svr:9443/rm/resources/TX_vyxJkSjjEeuLj_u8pP3M9Q

and set my Request Headers to:

OSLC-Core-Version = 2.0

Accept = Application/rdf+xml

I get the OLSC Resource data. If I don’t include the Accept header, this will open the item in the DOORS Web Interface.

Now if I try and do the same for a Requirement that is in a Global Configuration and add the oslc_config.context parameter to the URL, eg:

https://Svr:9443/rm/resources/TX_vyxJkSjjEeuLj_u8pP3M9Q?oslc_config.context=https%3A%2F%2FSvr %3A9443%2Frm%2Fcm%2Fstream%2F_u8rPECjjEeuLj_u8pP3M9Q

I get an ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE but by removing the Accept = Application/rdf+xml I do get the Resource Data back in rdf+xml format.

Is this a bug or am I trying to access OLSC data for a Resource in a Global Configuration incorrectly?

Please see https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/CLMProductAPILanding and check the stuff about OSLC and the documented APIs.

Your question, it is almost certainly you issuing a wrong call, missing request headers and not being authenticated.

Also see https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2019/05/13/using-a-rest-client-to-authenticate-to-elm-clm-applications/ how to use Postman (should also work for RESTCLIENT) to authenticate. Once that is done you can issue other calls. For RM authenticate with JTS.

Note, it is Accept:application/rdf+xml and not Accept:Application/rdf+xml not sure if that is an issue, just in case. You also might have to add

Content-Type: application/rdf+xml

Hi Ralph,

Thanks, yeah we managed to discover the issue with Access: application/rdf+xml, not Application/rdf+xml.

Interesting that this is inconsistent, as it works for getting other data with no problems. It feels like this might be a bug, given that all of the other interactions we do with OSLC work fine with the Accept:Application/rdf+xml set, including getting GC's, components, streams, artifacts etc.

It's all about the answers!
