Question

I am trying to create an api call to get all the custom forms a field is used on.

If I read a field (parameter) ID or name in, find the custom forms it is used on. Once I find the form ID, I would like to use the parameter ID and ctgy ID to remove the parameter from the form.

Hi,

 

to get the custom forms (categories) a field is used in, you can use the following GET query:

https://<instance>.my.workfront.com/attask/api-internal/CTGY/search?categoryParameters&parameterID=<customFieldID>

 

In the Workfront API the custom fields are called categories, using the endpoint CTGY and the custom fields are parameters.

 

 

Concerning removing a parameter from a form, I do not have an idea at the moment...

 

 

Regards

Lars

Ok, perhaps there is an easier way to do this, but if you have a look into this old thread by me, you can possibly derive a solution.

 

Yo will need to use a GET request to get all categoryParameters attached to a form and based on that remove the one you found using the call before.

 

Regards

Lars
