I found this article which seems to have a suggestion using Java.

https://jazz.net/library/article/1118

Note that this method relies on the availability of APIs that are included in the SDK. I don't think most installations come with the SDK installed by default. In addition, the SDK includes directory structures and file names which exceed the length supported by NTFS file systems so it is difficult to add the SDK onto a client installation.

If import is not possible, how can I use Java API or other method to set the Approval attribute?

Thanks!

Hi, Anyone has a solution to this ? I'm looking for retrieving the list of all tasks with the name of the approvers as one of the columns in the exported report.
The current query lets only to choose the name of the approver explicitly but that will not help. We need to get the individual names.
