  • 1.  Pulling Release information from Rally Production environment using .NET Custom code.

    Posted Feb 23, 2018 08:31 AM

    I am using below lines of code for pulling "Release Details" from Rally Prod enviorment, but it is returning zero resulsts
    even I have data available.

    When pointing same code to Development, it is returning requested query results. Please help me in this.

     

    Request request = new Request("release");

    request.Query = new Query("Name", Query.Operator.Equals, releaseName);

    // Make request and process results
    QueryResult queryResult = restApi.Query(request);
    foreach (var releaseData in queryResult.Results)
    {
    releaseEndDate = releaseData["ReleaseDate"];
    releaseStartDate = releaseData["ReleaseStartDate"];
    }

    There's not enough code here for me to really sink my teeth into.  I would hazard some guesses:

    1. Look at the fields you are Fetching and make sure Name, Release Date and Release Start Date are included

    2. Look at how "releaseName" is defined - make sure it is spelled correctly for the environment you are in.

    3. Did your Authentication succeed?

    4. You may have to use _refObjName (something like that, can't remember exact name) instead of "Name"

     

    Anything else I would say would be total conjecture since there's not really enough code to look at.

    Thank you for Dan for the useful information.

    I have executed all above mentioned things, but no luck. 

    I like share "Release" details of both the Workspace/Environments/Subscriptions (DEV and Sandbox).

    I have also shared complete code. Please look into this.

    Yerroju,

     

    Are you always using this query?

     

    request.Query = new Query("ObjectID", Query.Operator.Equals, "65248042552");

     

    If so, you are hardcoding your Release ObjectID from the Development Environment.  It isn't valid in any other Workspace, so the query will return zero results in any other Workspace.

    No I am not using it, I have kept this for testing results.

    It should be like below in the code. Please look into it.

    request.Query = new Query("Name", Query.Operator.Equals, "releaseName");

    Yerroju,

     

    OK.  My next guess is that the Release does not exist in the default Workspace/Project you have set in your profile, or if you do not have a default Workspace/Project set in your profile then the Release does not exist in the first Workspace alphabetically in your Subscription that you have been given access.

     

    If you scope the request to the appropriate Workspace, does that help?

     

    You may do this by adding this to your code where you are querying for the Release.

     

    request.Workspace = "workspace/17108262889";  // The Reference to the Workspace.

     

    There is some further information about Workspace/Project scoping and using Web Services in this KB Article: How workspace scoping in the UI affects workspace - CA Knowledge
