Posting TestcCase results - Could not read: Object not found for Object ID

[Damian Healey]

Hello! 
I need to write a PASS/FAIL and date to a TestCase

I get the following error 

{"CreateResult": {"_rallyAPIMajor": "2", "_rallyAPIMinor": "0", "Errors": ["Could not read: Object not found for Object ID: null"], "Warnings": ["It is no longer necessary to append \".js\" to WSAPI resources."]}}

Can anybody offer any guidance?

public static void main(String[] args) throws URISyntaxException, IOException {

    String host = "https://rally1.rallydev.com";
    String username = "[e-mail]";
    String apiKey = "_IcgM8kIQmO0uO92MJfyJXZT5n0wYEGypfPDKxrN58w";

    RallyRestApi restApi = new RallyRestApi(new URI(host), apiKey);
    restApi.setWsapiVersion(wsapiVersion);
    restApi.setApplicationName(applicationName);

    JsonArray userQueryResults = userQueryResponse.getResults();

    String userRef = userQueryObject.get("_ref").getAsString();
    System.out.println(userRef);

Hi Damian,

One thing that jumps out at me is your workspace reference.  That should be the numeric object ID as opposed to a name reference.
If you need to find the Object ID easily, we have an article you can follow here: https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article?articleId=47763

Hi David,

Where and how would I add the objectId in my code? When I run in debug  I noticed the variable testCaseRef contains the objectID in its URL https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/testcase/392946925700 also the response contains

"ObjectID": 392946925700

Hi @Damian Healey, 

I suspect that you don't need to set the workspace. You most likely would be better off by specifying the Project​ as this is mandatory when creating a TestCaseResult. The mandatory fields are marked with Required = true in the WSAPI docs here: https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/doc/webservice/

Here is an example of what the UI sets when creating a TestCaseResult which I captured from the browsers devtools:

In this case, the code is setting the project to the _ref field that you would get from reading your project entry. I also have a vague recollection that the TesCaseResult must be placed in the same Project node as the TestCase itself... but that might not be accurate.
