  • 1.  connector jira agile central

    Posted Apr 06, 2018 06:17 AM

    Dear Support, 

     

    For a customer demo I need to get the connector working between jira and agile central, 

     

    Working is:

    -connection on Jira/AC

    -new user stories added on both sides

    -updates on status not working

     

    Current problem is:

    Mapping change seems to be picked by the connector, but doesn’t updated on the other side. Both ways I have the same problem.

     

     

    Below more context information.

    I have defined the mapping as follows in the xml:

     

        <Connector>

            <FieldMapping>

                <Field><Rally>Name</Rally>           <Other>Summary</Other>      <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>

                <Field><Rally>Description</Rally>    <Other>Description</Other>  <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>

                <Field><Rally>ScheduleState</Rally>  <Other>Status</Other>       <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>

            </FieldMapping>

                                      <OtherFieldHandlers>

                <OtherEnumFieldHandler>

                    <FieldName>Status</FieldName>

                    <Mappings>

                        <Field><Rally>Defined</Rally>                            <Other>To Do</Other></Field>

                        <Field><Rally>In-Progress</Rally>     <Other>In Progress</Other></Field>

                        <Field><Rally>Accepted</Rally>                         <Other>Done</Other></Field>

                    </Mappings>

                </OtherEnumFieldHandler>

            </OtherFieldHandlers>

     

            <RallyFieldHandlers>

                <RallyEnumFieldHandler>

                    <FieldName>ScheduleState</FieldName>

                    <Mappings>

                        <Field><Rally>Defined</Rally>                            <Other>To Do</Other></Field>

                        <Field><Rally>In-Progress</Rally>     <Other>In Progress</Other></Field>

                                                                                    <Field><Rally>Completed</Rally>                            <Other>Done</Other></Field>

                        <Field><Rally>Accepted</Rally>                         <Other>Done</Other></Field>

                    </Mappings>

                </RallyEnumFieldHandler>

            </RallyFieldHandlers>

        </Connector>

    I have solved it by removing (comment out ) the otherfieldsHandler from the config xml. You can only have one Handler for doing from to mappings and not two.

     

    Example:

    <Connector>
    <FieldMapping>
    <Field><Rally>Name</Rally> <Other>Summary</Other> <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>
    <Field><Rally>Description</Rally> <Other>Description</Other> <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>
    <Field><Rally>ScheduleState</Rally> <Other>Status</Other> <Direction>BOTH</Direction></Field>
    </FieldMapping>
    <!--<OtherFieldHandlers>
    <OtherEnumFieldHandler>
    <FieldName>Status</FieldName>
    <Mappings>
    <Field><Rally>Defined</Rally> <Other>To Do</Other></Field>
    <Field><Rally>In-Progress</Rally> <Other>In Progress</Other></Field>
    <Field><Rally>Accepted</Rally> <Other>Done</Other></Field>
    </Mappings>
    </OtherEnumFieldHandler>
    </OtherFieldHandlers>-->

    <RallyFieldHandlers>
    <RallyEnumFieldHandler>
    <FieldName>ScheduleState</FieldName>
    <Mappings>
    <Field><Rally>Defined</Rally> <Other>Open</Other></Field>
    <Field><Rally>In-Progress</Rally> <Other>In Progress</Other></Field>
    <Field><Rally>Completed</Rally> <Other>Resolved</Other></Field>
    <Field><Rally>Accepted</Rally> <Other>Closed</Other></Field>
    </Mappings>
    </RallyEnumFieldHandler>
    </RallyFieldHandlers>
    </Connector>

     

    Also be sure to add the WorkflowFile in the jira connection tag to have the corresponded workflow.

     

    Example: <WorkflowFile>jira_issue_workflow.xml</WorkflowFile>
