Urcli assigns project that is not being pulled!

[adbelis]

Guidelines to submit an issue

I'm opening this issue because:

• urcli is doing something I don't understand.

What's going wrong?

I am certified for two projects A & B, but choose to pull request for Project A only. However, when I run the command urcli assign for A, I am getting notification for Project B.

• I have updated my urcli to the latest, going through all the steps from the beginning.
• My node is stable version.
• I tried the urcli certs, which just displays only the projects I am certified for.
• Yet pulling request for Project A only, still gives me notifications for Project B

supporting information:

• [x] node -v prints: v8.0.0
• [x] urcli -V prints: 4.0.6
• [x] Windows, OS X/macOS, or Linux?: macOS

Hi @adbelis, I think I mistakenly closed the other issue before you had a chance to report on any changes. Sorry about that!

So let me get this straight: You are request project A, but only getting project Bs assigned?

[adbelis]

Thanks for your kind response @trolster .

However, that's not exactly the case.

• From what I understand, if a request is made to a single project, it is assumed that other projects that is not being pulled, should not be assigned. right?

• Now If I am pulling both projects, and I am getting more of one over the other, that's not a problem. But when I am pulling only one - Project A, and I am getting notification for Project B, which is not even pulled in the first place, then something might definitely be wrong somewhere. Yes?

[trolster]

What kind of notification are we talking about? Can you get more specific? Like, let me know what project IDs and names you are requesting and take me through exactly what is happening. If you have screenshots or you can paste in the text from the UI, that is super helpful too.

[adbelis]

Thanks again. By Notification, I mean project assigned.

[trolster]

Also, try pressing the o key ("o" as in options), and select the debugging information. Paste it in. I will need you to be a lot more specific if I'm to help you :-).

[trolster]

Are the notifications correct? Do you actually get the reviews assigned that the notifications say you do?

[adbelis]

The Debugger shows that I am actually pulling request for just one project. Which is the right thing. And that is what worries me. If it is clear that I am pulling just one, then why is the other one still coming in?

Ok Let me elaborate.

• I am certified for the Movie Trailer Website with Project_ID -2 and Item Catalog with Project_ID - 5

• In the terminal, I type in urcli assign 5, pulling request for just one project; Item Catalog Project.

• Yet, I am still assigned Movie Trailer Website project.

Could this be clear enough?

Here is the debug info

}

• As you can see, It's the right thing - Project_id: 5 which is the Item Catalog Project.

• However, I am still assigned projects from Project_id: 2; Movie Trailer Website Project, even when I am not making any request for that.

[trolster]

That is clear, and it's a total mystery why that would happen. As you can see, the submission_request object that is returned from the servers, clearly show that you are only queued up for project_id 5. Remember that if you manually assign a project, using the dashboard, urcli will still notify you about it.

[adbelis]

I understand very well what you're saying @trolster . And I am very thankful to you for your indulgence.

Am as equally mystified by this too. I rarely manually assign a project from my dashboard. I Usually wait for the Notification from urcli. And when I see in the notification that I am assigned a project that I am not pulling, am stunned.

[trolster]

And just to be clear, the actual project, when you go to the dashboard to look, is it actually a Movie Trailer Website project?

[adbelis]

Yes. And I am not making any request for that. The Project just comes in on its own, and I am not sure where its coming from because I am not making any request for it.

[trolster]

No, I can see that you are requesting project_id 5, not 2..

Well, I think I can safely say that this isn't a urcli issue. It simply has to be an API issue, since urcli doesn't change the SR (submission_request object) and cannot control what is being assigned. When the SR only contains project_id 5, then that is what the API itself is using. So urcli is creating the correct SR, and the API is assigning incorrect projects.

All I can recommend that you do is to write in to reviews support and put "urgent" in the subject line, so that they look at it asap. Let me know how it goes.

[adbelis]

You are right that I am requesting Project 5, not 2, but project 2 keeps coming in.

Fair enough, I have written to review yesterday about this. Still waiting for a response. I will let you know if anything comes up.

[trolster]

Closing this as it's not a urcli issue, but I'd still like to hear what Udacity's response is, so let me know somehow when they get back to you.

[adbelis]

Hey @trolster, the Udacity team just got back to me. They are already aware of the problem, and the engineers are working on the Review API.

Thanks once again for your patience.

[trolster]

OK, thanks for getting back to me! Good luck with the reviewing.
