How to edit/update workItems Rich text customfields?

[armanoj]

Am getting the following error while updating rich text customfields in work items. Exception has occurred: ValidationError (note: full exception trace is shown but execution is paused at: ) Missing element content (updateWorkItem.content.customFields.Custom.value.content)

I have copied my code below:

Imports

from msilib.schema import CustomAction from urllib.parse import urljoin from polarion import polarion import openpyxl from openpyxl.styles.fills import PatternFill import os

class ConnectPolarion:

def __init__(self, alm_link, username, passwd, project_name):
    self.client = polarion.Polarion(alm_link, username, passwd, skip_cert_verification=True)
    self.my_project_name = project_name
    self.my_project = self.client.getProject(self.my_project_name)
    self.all_workitems_data = {}

def update_svcp_cases(self):
    self.spaces = self.my_project.getDocumentSpaces()
    self.document = self.my_project.getDocument(f'Preliminary Collaboration/Test_SVCP')
    self.all_workitems = self.document.getWorkitems()
    #Process the work item
    self.workitem = self.my_project.getWorkitem('VMM-20804')
    print(self.workitem)
    print(self.workitem._polarion_item)
    cond_cont = self.client.TextType
    val = cond_cont(type='text/html', content='This is my string', contentLossy=False)
    self.workitem.setCustomField('conditions', val)

myConnectPolarion.update_svcp_cases()

Hi @armanoj ,

I have taken your code (and simplified it a little) and this seems to work just fine on this side. what Python version and polarion package version are you using?

For reference, this is was i ended up with code wise:

from polarion import polarion

class ConnectPolarion:

    def __init__(self, alm_link, username, passwd, project_name):
        self.client = polarion.Polarion(alm_link, username, passwd, skip_cert_verification=True)
        self.my_project_name = project_name
        self.my_project = self.client.getProject(self.my_project_name)
        self.all_workitems_data = {}

    def update_svcp_cases(self):
        self.workitem = self.my_project.getWorkitem('PYTH-513')
        print(self.workitem)
        print(self.workitem._polarion_item)
        cond_cont = self.client.TextType

        val = cond_cont(type='text/html', content='This is my string', contentLossy=False)
        self.workitem.setCustomField('conditions', val)

myConnectPolarion = ConnectPolarion('http://localhost/polarion', '', '', '')
myConnectPolarion.update_svcp_cases()

Still am getting this error zeep.exceptions.ValidationError: Missing element content (updateWorkItem.content.customFields.Custom.value.content)

[jesper-raemaekers]

Sorry for the delay.

I tried reproducing this, but with little luck. I have the same python and packages versions but the code still works. I can only reproduce this if i manually set the content to None.

val = cond_cont(type='text/html', content=None, contentLossy=False)
