Hi Team,

Is there any way to find Backing Item ID of a IBPL (Item Backed PickList) field using CLI ?

*I'm able to get full field details using below command

Regards,

Arun

    We can use the fva fields to capture any value in Backing Issue of the IBPL field !!!

    If the ID field is in the IBPL Item Identifier, you can see the backing ID (see below).

    However, if the ID field is not shown, you must query the backing item types instead. For example:

    In my query screenshot above, it was not the best example. The query definition should really match the conditions of the IBPL filter and would look a bit different:

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply.

    Sorry - i asked the question in wrong way.

    I got a list of issue IDs(of Type 'A') where IBPL field is used. I need to get the Backing Issue ID (of IBPL field) used in each Issue (of type A)

    I was looking for a command to get this value.
