Creating a Work Item Type Programmatically

Henry Armburg Jennings (130●7●6) | asked Dec 28 '11, 10:33 a.m.

Is there a way to create a work item type programmatically? I am familiar with creating attributes and work items but can't find any relevant sections of the java API or even any forum posts that address this directly.

Any help would be appreciated, even if it's just a straight no! Thanks,

Henry

as I said before, I don't think this is externalized..

I think you would do this so infrequently that using the Admin UI should be enough.

If there is a reason u need this function, open an enhancement request workitem
