Pass Current Project area automatically as parameter value in Custom report Widget with RRDI
Hi
Similar to the question in https://jazz.net/forum/questions/32744/get-project-area-itemid-in-reportcontext-for-a-custom-report is it possible to set the Project Area (and Team Area if applicable) automatically when the report in the the Custom report Widget is an RRDI report?
It becomes especially painful to have to select the PA/TA everytime the dashboard or widget is refreshed.
Accepted answer
Unfortunately there's no mechanism to do this right now in RRDI, sorry.

Thanks James. Submitted https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Rational%20Team%20Concert#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=219114. Do any workarounds come to mind?
The only workaround I can think of is to create a different report view in RRDI for each project/team, with the correct parameters saved. Then use those report views directly from within the custom report widget so you don't get prompted.
