Prefill subject (and other fields) in create work package form with url parameters

Hello,

we would like to prefill some fields with the help of url parameters. The package create form can be called by the following url:

http://localhost:8080/projects/testprojekt01/workpackages/new?type=1

Additionally we would like e.g. prefill the subject:

http://localhost:8080/projects/testprojekt01/workpackages/new?type=1&subject=ABC

The user can overwrite the proposed subject.

Use case: We want to call the new-workpackage-form from our phone software. The phone software already knows the calling customer and this information should be given the new-workpackage-form.

Thank you in advance

Steffen

Hi Steffen,

This sounds like an interesting idea. At the moment this is not possible. Please feel free to create a feature request for it. Alternatively, you could use the OpenProject API for this.

Kind regards

Hi Matthias,

thank you for your response. Also good to know that it is not possible.

We would like to use the nice ticket editor from open project. The API has the disadvantage that we have to rebild the ticket form in a separat software instead of just prefilling some fields and use the open project form.
