Can I add the calculation to a parameter report?

I want to run a report that shows my custom field label, name, field type, and the calculation it uses. I cannot figure out how to add the actual calculation.

Hi Chris,

I invite you to give our Update Category Generator a whirl, which gives you the current definition of an existing custom form (including the formulas you're after) as an Excel file.

Thanks Doug!

So, is this not natively possible in Workfront reports? It would be nice to not have to pull it form by form.

My pleasure Chris,

The formula is stored a few levels down in the category expression object (e.g. https://yourdomain.my.workfront.com/attask/api/v10.0/ctgpex/metadata), which as I recall is not exposed via native reporting; and even if it was (e.g. via textmode), would be fussy to work with, which is one of the reasons we created our "see it in Excel" solution.

Regards,

Doug
