Rally events handling

[Anon Anon]

Hello,
How can we handle Rally events? I mean, whenever we create a User Story or a new task, is there any way we can trigger a mail or any kind of notification. I want to get notified whenever a User Story is created. Is there any API that can be used for this purpose or any listener that listens to every action done in rally?

You don't need an event handler for this, the built-in Notification Rules and Watch features support this already. You can find help for Notifications at https://help.rallydev.com/set-your-notifications and for Watches at https://help.rallydev.com/watch-items-beta. If you feel that you must do custom development then the Web Service API is open and you can review the documentation for your own subscription at https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/doc/webservice/. Hope that helps.

Thanks Eric... I went through the docs about Notifications and Watches... It really helped. But I also wanted to know if I can have some response from Rally which i can use, like a JSON or XML response.
