How to get DNG requirements attributes from external URL via API?


Karl Gödel (11) | asked Dec 06 '23, 4:13 a.m.

We have two different servers running DNG. We use external links ("Link to") to ensure some kind of traceability between requirements on the two different servers.
I try to create a check if all of these (unidirectional) links are correct and everything is linked.

So far I tried the report builder (but there I can only get the external URL, not even the title of the link is working).
I would be also happy to check that externally by a (e.g. Python) script.

Is there a way to get requirements attributes from such an external URL in the form of "https://server.com/rm/resources/BI_k0CKQKuVEeyFJfKsiNWFzw" from a Python script? How can I "decode" that URL to be used with e.g. the REST API?

Thanks a lot for the help.

Ok, I guess that was a noob question and looking closer into the DNG REST API Wiki, I found out that I simply get the artefact info with this URL:
