  • 1.  WSAPI retrieve list of workspaces

    Posted Sep 10, 2014 10:47 AM
    I am unable to get a list of workspaces with WSAPI v2.0

    however, v1.29 works with the following query:
    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/1.29/subscription.js?fetch=Workspaces,Name,Projects&pretty=true


    I have tried walking:
    1. https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/subscription/
    2. https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/subscription/123456789
    3. https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/Subscription/123456789/Workspaces
    result:
      {
         QueryResult: {
        _rallyAPIMajor: "2",
        _rallyAPIMinor: "0",
        Errors: [ ],
        Warnings: [ ],
        TotalResultCount: 3,
        StartIndex: 1,
        PageSize: 20,
        Results: [ ]
         }
        }


    I have tried:


    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/Subscription/123456789/Workspaces?fetch=true
    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/Subscription/123456789/Workspaces?fetch=ObjectID

    All return just the basic QueryResult summary, and an empty QueryResult.Results.


    The following posts do not work:
    1. https://rallydev.force.com/answers#!/feedtype=SINGLE_ARTICLE_SEARCH_RESULT&id=kA014000000PK1U
    2. Rally Success Question: "How we can fetch all workspaces associated to a particular user using Rest API v2.0?"




    Please advise.

    Hi Lloyd,  did the answer posted in the question linked below help you?

    Unforunately, no, it'll only show me the current workspace for which I'm logged in for on the frontend.

    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/workspace?workspace=https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/workspace/123456789&query=&start=1&pagesize=20
    will only giev me back one result... not the three I am expecting.

    if I go:
    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/workspace?query=&start=1&pagesize=20 also limited to one result.
    Reading somewhere else:
    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/workspace?query=&start=2&pagesize=20  [NOTE the start position 2]
    will give me the basic QueryResult summary, and an empty QueryResult.Results.

    Hi Lloyd,
    sorry for the troubles.  I submitted a defect. If I use the endpoint with pagesize=200 exactly (after replacing the <Subscripton ObjectID> placeholder with actual sub OID) as shown in this article (https://rallydev.force.com/answers?id=kA014000000PK1U)

    https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/subscription/<Subscripton ObjectID>/workspaces?&pagesize=200&fetch=ObjectID

    it returns all workspace objects, but if I change pagesize to 20 or entirely omit it, it does not return workspace objects. You may see the outcome of my test in this short (a few seconds) video (http://screencast.com/t/xh6HuLueObms). I think it's a bug. If the TotalResultCount is 3 which is below the default pagesize of 20, I don't belive the pagesize parameter should matter, and using 200 does not seem like a workaround to me - it is possible that it worked for me only because of a specific position of workspaces in question within my collection of workspaces, which would be different in different subscirptions. (Note that 200 is max pagesize in WS API).

    Nick, nice to know you can reproduce it.

    Modifying your link, to my IDs... I cannot get that work.

    tried:
    still don't work for me... they always return back TotalResultCount:3, Results:[].


    Is there an ETA on it being fixed, and released on rally1?

    Hi Lloyd,
    A fix was released and defect closed a few days ago. It was linked to an older defect when TotalResultsCount did not match the actual number of workspace or projects objects returned when "subscription/workspaces" or "workspace/projects" endpoints were used under certain permissions scenarios (e.g. there were closed projects to which a user never had access to).
    I verified that I no longer can replicate this problem. Would you please test it too and let me know?Thank you.
