authentication problem when using RQMUrlUtility

I tried to use RQMUrlUtility to GET a list of test cases, but seems it couldn't pass authentication. I provided my user name and password correctly in command line argument, but all I got was the HTML code from user login page. Could anyone help me to solve this problem?

I downloaded RQMUrlUtility 3.0.1 and RQM version is also 3.0.1

The command I issued is:

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command GET -user bobwang@ca.ibm.com -password xxxxxxxx -context qm -filepath d:\\listc.xml -url https://ecdclm.ottawa.ibm.com:9445/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/WebSphere+Commerce+(Quality+Management)/testcase

the standard output is:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
<<<<<RQMUrlUtility>>>>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

looks like everything is fine except "INFO: Redirect requested but followRedirects is disabled", not sure if this is an issue.

And when I opened file d:\listc.xml, I found all I get was the HTML file from the user login page.

I'm not sure since the JavaScript does not provide much information.

My best guess is that you are using the wrong URL (web UI URL versus integration service URL) to make the request and the RQM URL Utility is attempting to log into the web UI. Can you post your RQM URL Utility parameters?

Thanks for the response Paules,

I am not sure if I 'can' post the command I'm using as it might disclose the url and it's a fairly private url.
But I am indeed using the UI URL (this is the URL that I would use on the browser).

I wasn't aware that I should use a dfferent one...
Is there some way of deriving the integration service URL from the UI URL ?

As mentioned in https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMURLUtility, you use https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi#resourceUrl_for_interaction_with.

You can post proprietary URLs by masking the host/port/etc.

Thanks

Ok so the URL I can access via the Browser (UI) is:
(with host and port masked out)
https://swgjazz.ibm.com:8023/jazz/web/console/AC#action=com.ibm.rqm.planning.home.actionDispatcher&subAction=viewTestCase&id=6702

I am checking the second url you supply below (first one seems to be broken) here for how to translate that:..
But if you can help that would be great.

This correct URL is:

https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMURLUtility

The comma was appended to the URL.

Please follow the usage examples:

https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMURLUtility#Sample_command_line_arguments
