RTC 3.0.1.x. What I need is to fetch all work items of particular type from all project areas. OSLC REST API is scoped to context (e.g. project area) so I have to use Reportable REST API. 
But
returns CRRED0105E: Unsupported type name: com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItemType

Any ideas?

Type is a complex attribute and you need to specify you are filtering on the id of the type.  This works (in 4.0):
https://servername:9443/ccm/rpt/repository/workitem?fields=workitem/workItem[type/id='defect']/id

I tried to leverage Brian Fleming's example (above) for a solution I'm working on using RTC 4.0.1.  I wasn't able to get that syntax to work.  But the following worked for me using RTC 4.0.1. According to http://open-services.net/pub/Main/ReportingHome/Reportable_Rest_Services_Interfaces-OSLC_Submission.pdf (page 19, section 4.3.2.4) you have to add "@" or "attribute::" when filtering on an attribute versus a child element. In my example below, @id for type worked.  Without @ didn't work in this case. For some reason unknown to me, @name for type didn't work (with or without @).  So I had to stick with matching on the id.

EXAMPLE: https://<server>:<port>/ccm/rpt/repository/workitem?fields=workitem/workItem/(type[ @ id='source_code_ci_-_micses']/*|id|state/*)         (Note that I added a space before and after the "@" above to keet the answer formatting from being distorted after I submit the answer.)

I did get Brian's example to work for me after all.       fields=workitem/workItem[type/id='source_code_ci_-_micses']/(id|state/*)   My example works if you need to filter at a lower level.

When you try with below mention URL, it will show you all result, it is blank, will not catch type field. Still a open issue.

https://servername:9443/ccm/rpt/repository/workitem?fields=workitem/workItem/(id|type)

 Hi Vivek,

I haven't managed to make WI type filters work in Reportable REST API, I had to use OSLC REST API (dc_type attribute).
