How to use sortDirection in Java API

[sziel]

Hi,

I'm using the Java API_4_16.

I'd like to add the sortDirection as option:

...
command.addOption(new Option("sortField","Planned End Date"));
command.addOption(new Option("sortDirection","Ascending"));
...

when executing the command it throws this exception:

com.mks.api.response.InvalidCommandOptionException: im: MKS124819: Invalid option: "sortDirection"

So how to specifiy the sort direction 🤔

Regards,

Simon

Hi @sziel ,

If i am not wrong you are running "im issues" command and you want to get result in specific order based on a field. sortDirection is not a option in im issues command.

Please refer the help page to check which all options are available in specific command. https://<ServerName>:<ServerPort>/integrity122_hc/en/index.html#page/IntegrityHelp%2Fim_issues.html 

You should use like this:-

For Ascending:-

command.addOption(new Option("sortField","Planned End Date"));
command.addOption(new Option("sortAscending"));

For Descending:-

command.addOption(new Option("sortField","Planned End Date"));
command.addOption(new Option("nosortAscending"));

Does this help?
