Generate a URL to Rally objects using FormattedID?


I would like to write web pages that have links to Rally issues (Test Cases, Defects, etc). I would like to be able to generate a URL with the FormattedID. Is this possible? Or do I really need the objectID? For example:

http://rally1.rallydev.com/363953481d/detail/testcase/TC1665

(or something like that, instead of the cryptic object id)


Solution

  • The following allows users to go directly to the detail page of a work product without having to know the Object ID:

    https://rally1.rallydev.com/#/search?keywords=US1234

    This relies on a feature of Rally's search functionality and isn't officially supported - so the above URL isn't guaranteed to work forever. However it's a decent way to use Formatted ID's as a workaround.
