Options to automate ReqIF Import

Hi!
We want to automate the ReqIF import process in Codebeamer. According to PTC Support, there is currently no API for this, so the only known option is through the "Import ReqIF" in the Trackers menu within the UI. Has anyone worked on automating ReqIF imports or found any possible workarounds? Thanks!

    Hi @Alexej_L,

    Thank you for your question!

    Your post appears well documented but has not yet received any response. I am replying to raise awareness. Hopefully, another community member will be able to help.

    Also, feel free to add any additional information you think might be relevant. It sometimes helps to have screenshots to better understand what you are trying to do.

     

    Best regards,

    We have identified two potential options to automate the ReqIF import:

    1. As previously mentioned, using the "Import ReqIF" feature in the Trackers menu within the Codebeamer UI (with Selenium).
    2. Using a Java-based approach, where the Codebeamer jar is included as an external library in your Java project. The package com.intland.codebeamer.controller.reqif handles ReqIF.

    Please note that both options are not officially supported or documented by PTC (based on a PTC Support statement).

    Hi @Catnip 

    Thank you! I’m aware of that case. PTC Support couldn’t specify the release or date when it would be available. Since the customer was not satisfied with such an undefined status, they asked us to explore workarounds. As a result, we conducted our own investigation, and I also reached out to the community for additional insights. 😉
