Hello,I would like to know whether it is possible to import an XML file containing UML/SysML data into Windchill Modeler.If XML import is supported, could you please provide the steps or the recommended approach for importing such files?I have already tried importing a sample XML file, but it was not accepted by the tool. In the Import options, I can only see support for .zip and .inf file formats, and there does not appear to be an option for importing XML files directly.Could you please clarify whether XML-based UML/SysML models can be imported and, if so, what format or conversion is required?Thanks, Balamurali

I know how to create a review for requirements in trackers. But how can we create a review for a document in CodeBeamer? Thanks.I uploaded a PPT file to CodeBeamer. I didn’t find the way to create a review for it. 

In the UI a tracker can be locked by a user for exclusive access, but this is not possible via REST API.Use case:The items of a tracker are modified outside the UI, e.g. to generate a item skeleton. This operation must be performed atomic, i.e. it must be prevented that someone else modifies any item of the tracker while the external modifications are done.

Hello all, I've been tasked with creating some WorkflowActions that shall obtain data, process it and write the result to an item field (text, choice, table - differs per WA), where the triggering Member lacks write access to the field. A use case is (e.g.) writing "administrative data" to item fields that are not visible to members with certain roles (e.g. "Externals" or "Non privileged" regular users). Since a WorkflowAction is, by design, always executed in the context of the triggering user, this cannot be achieved by default. Is there a way to execute these field updates under a different user context (e.g. "system user") from within the WorkflowAction, or to run the WorkflowAction itself under a different context? Another approach could be utilising the "Execute as" mechanism available for some "predefined" WorkflowAction (disabled by default) - is there a way to use this from a custom WorkflowAction (possibly with a "hard wired" user, defined in the WA)? Any ideas or suggestions

I am using Codebeamer Release 20.11-SP5 I need a documentation about a possible upgrade path to get our current 20.11-SP5 (running on MySQL) up to the most current version. Is this 3.1? Thanks a lot, Harald

When opening a review, the "References" tab of each item should be expanded by default, without requiring any manual interaction. Like shown in the picture. See also Case Details: 18097824 

The Word export template is exporting specific information into a table  The table has a font and font size  set.  However, when the data is export certain data items (not all) have the text size changed as they are exported.  And example of this is the item «item.signed.urlKeyId»  This item is consistently changed from a size 6 to size 10 when exported.  I have attempted to set the 'Ignore HTML formatting';  I have added a style to the table and set the font style and size with this as well; I have added a paragraph with a font style and size as well;  None of these attempts seem to help.

Hi Team,Need support/clarification on the following use case:When a Test Run is created from Test Case V2, the Test Run captures and stores that specific version (V2) of the test case. In a scenario where the Test Case is later updated to V3, the Test Run still continues to reference V2 and does not automatically reflect the updated version.Could you please confirmWhether there is any way to synchronize or update the Test Case version within an existing Test Run, orIf this behavior is expected by design, what is the recommended best practice to manage this use case?Please refer support Case Details - 18068685 for more information 

We would like to understand if the below requirement is possible in Codebeamer. We are creating the Test Run from the test cases, In bottom we have to select an Test Configurations.Currently it is possible to select the multiple Test configurations while creating the test run, Is there any possibility to select just one Test Configuration out of available options ?Also, Suppose I have 100 of test configurations So it is very difficult for me to view and select the required test configuration, Instead of it If we have the drop down field of selecting the Test Configurations that would have been a better choice.Is there any possibility to achieve this also ?Please refer case details 18077804 for more information 

When a Test Case tracker is created using template inheritance, the option“Make a copy of the items and link the target item with the copies” is not consistently available, and copied test cases do not retain their original status.This behavior is observed while copying test cases from a base Test Case tracker to a template‑inherited Test Case tracker The copy option “Make a copy of the items and link the target item with the copies” is not displayed.Test cases copied via drag‑and‑drop are created with status = Draft, even if the original test case is in another status (e.g., Approved). Please refer case details Case Details - 18070485 for more information 

Hi Team,as per the PTC codebeamer articles,Test cases can be added to or removed from a Test Run only under the following conditions only:For a Regular Test Run when the status is “Ready for Execution”For a Formal Test Run when the status is “To be Approved”However, Customer requirement is need to add or remove the test cases from test run when the Test Run is "In progress" state or "Finished" when we are restarting the test runis there any way to achieve this ?please refer case details 18065754 for more information 

Hello everyone,I would like to ask if anyone can share case studies or examples where Codebeamer has been used for AI model development in automotive software, particularly for AI models that are embedded in actual products.We are considering a configuration along the following lines:Codebeamer Experiment management tools (e.g., Weights & Biases, MLflow) Git-based repository (e.g., JFrog)To clarify, we are not referring to AI models used in development support tools, but rather to AI models that are part of the delivered automotive product itself.If you have any relevant experiences, best practices, or references, we would greatly appreciate your insights.Thank you very much in advance for your time and support.

In CB, the user would like the option to delete the link between Test Case & Test Sets directly from the Downstream References tab in the Test Case tracker. With the current process, removing a test case from several test sets is complicated. They would therefore like to remove the link directly from the Test Case tracker instead of going into each test set and deleting it one by one.

Issue DetailsIn Codebeamer Public View, currently users are restricted to create public views due to project activities  The option to create a subfolder is either not available. This limitation affects users who need to organize data within folders in Private View/Shared private view.Current Solution / WorkaroundCurrently, subfolders can only be created only Public View  Only project levels filters are allowed with is performed by admins. No direct option is available within Private View/Shared private View to perform this action.ProposalEnable the option to create subfolders within Public View. Ensure proper permissions are maintained while allowing this functionality. Add a visible and user-friendly option (e.g., "Create Subfolder") in the UI.BenefitsImproves usability and user experience in Private View/Shared private View. Allows better organization and management of project data. Reduces dependency on admins or switching views. Saves time and increases productivity for users.

Hello! We are trying to find a REST API which allows us to Enable/Disable a project (i.e. Lock all the trackers, prevent any changes in members, roles, etc) In Java based workflow actions, we are using:  var project = projectDao.findById(admin, project.getId());project.setDisabled(true);projectDao.update(project);

I propose CodeBeamer to add a function to set the default stream.Every time I login in CodeBeamer, it stays in initial stream. And I have to switch to other stream every day. 

I created a stream to test the feature. I can not see in the UI how to delete it. And there is no end-point in the REST API to delete a stream.

Hi there,I tried to create a link in the description of an item: where the URL is a Codebeamer item (e.g. https://test-codebeamer.mycompany.local/cb/issue/69545) then it first looks fine:… but after saving it is destroyed:(Note: from now on the link cannot be edited anymore)What is the issue?

Description:Currently, Codebeamer does not provide access to the database schema, which limits advanced data exploration and reporting capabilities. In addition, administrators have limited visibility into background jobs and report executions initiated by users.Problem Statement:No direct visibility of database structure restricts advanced querying needs. Reports page does not allow flexible querying using CBQL. Administrators lack visibility into: Who initiated a report or query Current job execution status History of executed jobs This creates challenges in monitoring system usage, troubleshooting failures, and ensuring governance.Proposed Enhancement:Introduce the following capabilities, especially for admin users: CBQL Query Execution in Reports Page Enable running CBQL queries directly from the Reports interface. Allow advanced filtering and data retrieval without DB access. Admin Job Monitoring Dashboard Provide a dashboard where admins can: View all running and completed

Hello Team, I have codebeamer 2.1.0.0 installed with lots of user's data. Further I need to upgrade to 3.0 version. I know it’s not possible to directly upgrade it to 3.0 so can anyone guide what is step by step way to upgrade.  Thanks
