ETM URL Utility

Has anyone actually gotten this to work (702 iFix10) ?

I tried a basic example - created two projects ETM1 and ETM2 with a single test plan in ETM1

I downloaded the test plan successfully with a GET but I could not PUT it to the other project

Everything I've tried results in a server response of 400

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command GET -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM1/testplan/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:35

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command PUT -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM2/testplan/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:35

I tried TLS1.2

java -Dcom.ibm.team.repository.transport.client.protocol=TLSv1.2 -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command PUT -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM2/testplan/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:35

I also tried a POST with the same result

I also gave Everyone permissions to do Everything (just in case it was a permissions error)

I'm out of options

OK so these two commands will read all test plans from ETM2 and add them to ETM1 - hope this helps someone else !

Read:

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -Dcom.ibm.team.repository.transport.client.protocol=TLSv1.2 -command GET -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM2/testplan?abbreviate=false

Write:

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -Dcom.ibm.team.repository.transport.client.protocol=TLSv1.2 -command POST -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM1/testplan

Andy, the errors you're seeing look like TLS related errors. Are you using the JRE shipped with ETM, or a later JRE?
If you are using a later JRE, that might be the cause.

Hi David - using java version "1.8.0_221"

I hard coded the command to use the Java shipped with ETM - still got a 400 but a slightly different message afterwards:

More on this:

PUTing a resource back to its original location works just fine (I changed the title in the XML and pushed it back)

POSTing it to a new project does not

So I've made some progress on this

I can GET a single resource and then POST that to a new project (the key is not to include the id of the new test plan in the POST) - should have paid more attention to the docs on that one !

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command POST -user ibm -password ibm -filepath c:/work/get.xml -url https://ibmjazz:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/ETM1/testplan

However Bulk download / upload which is what I was hoping for still throws 400:
