AddItemExternal.aspx

[Marc]

Would it be possible to get either the source for this form, or an example of using AddItemExternal()?

It seems to take the same MantisItem object as AddItem but there doesn't seem to be any documentation as to what the required data is, what the return value represents, etc.

Just seeing a sample would save me a lot of poking around.

I just added the following KB article with some examples for AddItemExternal()

Great work. This is exactly what I was looking for.

Just a note on the KB. I had to remove the following line to get it to work:

dragnetService.Url = "http://localhost/dragnet";

The example URL was supposed to be: "http://localhost/dragnet/dragnetwebservice.asmx"

I updated the article.

Sorry about that.

Hello,

I'm porting my 400 bugs into DragNet and am using AddItemExternal().

I was able to create a VB project, add the web reference and login to the web service. I then created my call to AddItemExternal(), but get back error 1009. Project Permission Denied = 1009.

Here's my code:

Code: Select all

            Dim ret As Integer
            Dim mItem As Dragnet.MantisItem = New Dragnet.MantisItem

            mItem.ProjectID = 1017
            mItem.CategoryID = 1 ' 1 = application

            mItem.Description = "Description "
            mItem.Details = "Details"

            mItem.Version = "build 200" ' Found in
            mItem.PlatformID = 2 ' Windows

            mItem.TypeID = 3

            mItem.AssigneeID = 101
            mItem.Created = "4/19/2004"
            mItem.StatusID = 2
            mItem.Subject = "Subject"

            ret = dn.AddItemExternal(mItem)

That user is an 'admin' and also has developer & Administrator rights to all projects. Through the Dragnet app, that user can create items. Any insights?

thanks, Ken

Do you have Add External Items turned on for the projects you are trying to add the items to?

From the Modify Project page, make sure the "Allow External Submissions" checkbox is checked.

Well, what do you know? It's working great! I knew it had to be something simple.
