Hi,   We have a specific requirement where specific set of SI projects have to migrated from one Integrity server to another. The revision history, baseline documents along with its versions and traceability has to be migrated to the new Integrity server. Is there a script to perform this type of migration ? Please advise.   Thanks, Sailesh

Hello, The "im createcontent" and "im importcontent" commands allow to provide an input file. Can someone help info with the structure of such an input file ? --addAttachment=value adds attachments to the issue, where value is of the form "fieldName,path=pathToFile[,name=nameOfAttachment][,summary=shortDescription] " .   Correction: I am not interested in the --addAttachment=value parameter but rather in the [(-F file | --selectionFile=file)] parameter   Thank you!  

  Hello, I am using Visual Studio and C# to create a SOAP client for Integrity 10.2  web services.   Based on some questions here, I was able to make this working code: (actually fails due to a bug with jboss, but completes the request)   AttachmentRequest arg0 = new AttachmentRequest(); arg0.AttachmentName = "distributionowners.txt"; arg0.FieldName = "Attachments"; arg0.ItemId = "1234"; arg0.Username = "username"; arg0.Password = "password"; fetchAttachments fa = new fetchAttachments(); fa.arg0 = arg0; fetchAttachmentsResponse response = proxyClient.fetchAttachments(fa); I just want to do getItem and createItem requests, but the format for getItem in the API seems different. The closest I was able to get was this:       Console.WriteLine(proxyClient.Endpoint.Address.Uri); getItemRequest req = new getItemRequest(); req.getItem.arg0.Username = "username"; //null reference req.getItem.arg0.Password = "password"; req.getItem.arg0.InputField

IBM announced that IBM i 7.4 will be generally available 2019-06-21.  Is there a statement of support for Implementer with IBM i 7.4?  When will Implementer support IBM i 7.4?  What version of Implementer will we need to be at?  We are currently running 12.2.

Hello, I would like to add a hyperlink to a text field (e.g.: summary) when using im – command „createissue“ in the Windows command line interface (cmd.exe). Unfortunately PTC Integrity CLI Reference for Integrity 10.8 stated at the end of this message is not really helpful to fix it. It’s also difficult to deal with the information stated in the “Note” of the explanation for the option “--richContentField=value” related to the Windows command line interface (cmd.exe).   It’s possible for me to create a hyperlink via im – command “editissue” as stated in the following example: im editissue --user=<user id> --hostname=<hostname> --richContentField=Description="<!-- MKS HTML --><a href=<hostname, etc.>/im/viewissue?selection=2418>Link_Example</a>" 2418     Could you please provide reproducible examples for adding hyperlink via “im createissue” to a text field, for example field “Summary” or “Comment”,etc.. It would be also great to get m

How to deploy custom WAR files in Integrity 12.2? Deploying wars in IntegrityServerInstallFolder/server/mks/deploy doesnt work. we restarted service as well but no luck. we tested on local Tomcat, it works fine. do we have any details on this?

Hello, I am new to this forum so I am not sure if I am posting this question in the right forum, so please advice me if I made a mistake. And what should I enter in the Labels field? I am using Integrity Modeler 8.5.1 and have a problem with a diagram that is associated with a Call Behavior Action in an activity diagram. When I double click the Call Behavior Action, another activity diagram opens. I would like to remove this association, so I go to Links/Associate Diagrams. But, there are no associations shown! I created a new association to the same diagram, and double clicking works as before. Next I remove the association, but double clicking still gives the same behavior, i.e. the diagram opens. Any ideas? 

Hi,A user asks:"One has to use the Windows login and password why not automate the login with Active Directory?"Does the Java desktop Integrity Client support a kind of single sign on ?I have noticed the article below but I'm not sure it answers my question:Does Integrity Support any SSO Solutions other AD?Can the PTC Integrity Java Client after loading and initializing, take the viewset credentials from "somewhere" ?Thanks!

Hi all,   Our testing is automated more and more and our development cycles are becoming really short. That implies that automated tests are executed several times per day. Say, 10 sessions per day with 500 to 2000 test cases per session will not be an exception anymore. Is this going to cause issues if we log everything in Integrity LM? We are already running into issues with the nightly calculation, even with the optimized nightly.js.So if we continue this trend, I am concerned about the impact on the application (e.g. load the API causes on the server, nightly metric calculation on test objectives), the impact on the infrastructure (server, db, ...).From an architectural point of view, do you recommend a direct API to the server, or do you recommend to use an Agent (ATEF) instead?Any best practice, tip or recommendation is welcome.   Thanks in advance!

We plan to update our domain group description fields via script to note down the related item id for managing the group modification.Unfortunately we can only create newlines via admin gui for the group description. Name: DomainGroup1234 Description: Line1 Line2 Group Members: TestUser:User Via command line we don't know how to do this, everything in the description statement is put in one line: > Integrity editmksdomaingroup --hostname=host --port=port --description="Line1"◙"Line2" DomainGroup1234 leads to:Name: DomainGroup1234 Description: Line1?Line2Group Members: TestUser:User I have tried replacing the newline characters with “\n” and the command works, but the description contains the “\n” and not a newline character. Do you have any idea how we can add newline characters into the group description with the commandline? Regards, Bertram

If you are interested in "Meeting Minutes" and / or "RESTful services" in Integrity LM, read on ...At PTC Consulting, we usually analyze different solution alternatives for our customers. During such an evaluation project, we analyzed the possibility of interacting with RESTful Services. As an outcome, a library was created that communicates with Integrity in order to obtain items and to create simple documents. (Since Integrity LM 10.9 and also in 11.1 we have included RESTeasy as one of the well-known RESTful implementations.)I was then looking for a good example and reminded me of my interest to go away from Excel and Word Meeting Minutes. So I implemented a simple "Meeting Minutes Application" on top of the RESTeasy libs.I am happy to share this with interested people in the state as it is now.   Please note: It was only created for demo purposes It runs on a separate Integrity project server (not on the PROD!) It meets the minimal requirements for a Meeting Minutes app. It u

Hello,   I am trying to simulate object flows within an activity diagram with SySim or Simulink. Does anyone know if this is something that PTC offers the ability to do?

Hello together, what I'd like to do is to get the most recent checkpoint number of a project and any of it's subprojects. Is there any possibility to do so? What I've tried so far is to display every subproject with si viewproject --filter=attribute:name=project.pj -R and to display the history of a project with si viewprojecthistory --fields=revision, but as I'm new to PTC, i don't know how to combine them.   Thank you in advance.
