Workfront

Hello!

My organization has a project I'd like to submit requests for tasks to via the Workfront API. The request form itself has several custom fields created by our organization.

I didn't see anything about "Requests" within the API documentation and am wondering if it is possible to submit a request, while solving for the custom fields via the API. Has anyone here attempted this, and if so- can an example POST request please be shared?

Thank you!

Requests are stored as a type of issue - so it would work by creating issues and then setting the corresponding variable that it's a "request".

Thank you, Jason! Have you seen an example of this type of request around? I'm also not familiar with how to create an issue via the API.

I've done it with the tools in Fusion, but not hitting the API directly.

You have to make a POST request to Workfront populating all of the data. Here are some links for Workfront's API that may prove useful. A request is just an issue, so anything about issues also applies to requests.
