Hi All, Our org has recently requested some changes to the way we do resource planning, and I'm looking for some advice from the community to see how you all would go about this in the tool (our Workfront admin team has some ideas with resource pools and custom fields but they're all a little messy)...

Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone else has come across the maximum URI length allowed by Workfront server when utilizing the API and if so how you got around it? Specifically for me, I'm trying to use the API to add an additional hour type to a user's current list of available hour types. The problem ...

I think resource pools bucketed by role could give you a good view from the planner perspective.

At my company, we use the API to pull all Workfront data into a central relational database that closely mirrors the Workfront objects' underlying data structure, but also has some helper tables and helper columns to make some of the more complex relationships easier to query. In this way, we pull d...

Melinda, The second one works wonderfully (using FIELD:ownerID and FIELD:taskID against those fields on the Assignment objects we're querying for existence), and I understand, now, how the EXISTS operator works because of this example! Thank you much, this has opened a door to many new reporting c...

Thanks for the advice and workarounds! I like the idea of creating a new account if someone undergoes a major change in contract that affects their roles, rates and such. I wasn't sure if this was an issue others were having or if we are just getting too granular with certain of our analyses and aud...

Hi Doug, I tested this out and it does not seem to help with the resultant incorrect CPI calculation that our PMs are most concerned with. The problem is the actual hour objects are automatically updated to have the user's new role. This means when we're doing role based CPI, the whole calculation...

Hi all, We've been having a problem with one of WorkFront's "features" causing job role history on hours booked to a project to be lost. Here's what happens: Bob is a Software Developer (his job role is "Software Developer") who is assigned to a task "Requirements Gathering for Web UI Improvement". ...

I've been able to do this outside of Workfront using the API. You can get a list of all Journal Entry objects where the status of a time sheet has changed. The URI looks something like the following (obviously you can add more logic to filter out different time sheet profiles, statuses, or etc based...

Can you show us your javascript code and the errors you are getting. Workfront does not support JSONP, but they allegedly has an option that will enable CORS (Cross-Origin) in Setup -> System -> Preferences -> "Allow Embedding of Workfront in an iframe". From there you will need to also enable CORS ...
