searchWorkitem with 'customFields' request doesn't work #53

Closed nickdante8 closed 2 years ago

nickdante8 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I try to get polarion workitem information with searchWrokitem method. I need just a couple of fields to retrieve to make it faster and it seems that for 'customFields' it doesn't work. For this field I get None even if a lot of workitems does have this kind of field in Polarion.

When I use getWorkitem I get 'customFields' as well, but I have other 3000 workitems and it takes a lot of time to do so, that's why I need to use searchWrokitem instead.

Used command: workitems_design_element = project.searchWorkitem('type:sw_architecture_element', 'id', ['id', 'customFields'])

Could someone help me with this? Is there a problem with python-polarion library?

Thank you!

Hi,

You are very close, you specify the custom field(s) like so:

workitems_design_element = project.searchWorkitem('type:task', field_list=['id', 'author', 'customFields.int_field', 'customFields.string_field'])

Just replace 'int_field' and 'string_field' with your custom field names.

Let me know if this works for you.

Hello,

Thank you very much, it did really work.

Is it possible to add this kind of information to documentation, I didn't find anything in there really about this?

Thank you
