Create work package through API

Hi,

I tried to create a work package though the API by using the following link as POST request:

https://openproject.xxx/api/v3/projects/testprojekt/work_packages

I used the following body:

{"subject": "test", "status": „new“, "type": „bug“, "description": {"format": "textile", "raw": "asd"}}

But unfortunately I get the following error:

{
  "_type": "Error",
  "errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:MultipleErrors",
  "message": "Einschränkungen für mehrere Felder wurden verletzt.",
  "_embedded": {
    "errors": [
      {
        "_type": "Error",
        "errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:PropertyConstraintViolation",
        "message": "Typ muss ausgefüllt werden.",
        "_embedded": {
          "details": {
            "attribute": "type"
          }
        }
      },
      {
        "_type": "Error",
        "errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:PropertyConstraintViolation",
        "message": "Typ ist nicht auf einen erlaubten Wert gesetzt.",
        "_embedded": {
          "details": {
            "attribute": "type"
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

What’s my fault? I’m very sure that the type is correct.
I’m using OpenProject 6.

Thanks for help!

Hi,

your request is not correct. Please compare with the APIv3 guide: http://opf.github.io/apiv3-doc/#work-packages-work-packages-post

You’ll need to pass the type in the HAL _links section:

{  
  "_links": {
    "type": {
       "href": "/api/v3/types/1" // Change TYPE ID to your Bug type. Check /api/v3/types for available types
     },
     // Other LINKED attributes ... 
  },
  "subject": "Foobar",
   //  Other EMBEDDED attributes ... 
}

Best,
Oliver

Hi Oliver,

I tried to create with this code a work packages:

var xhr2 = new XMLHttpRequest();

var data = ‘{subject subject“,”description“: {”format“: ”textile“, ”raw“: ”My raw textile formatted description. Bye guys!“}, ”_links“: {”type“: {”href“:”/api/v3/types/1“, ”title“: ”Task“}, ”status“:{”href“:”/api/v3/statuses/1“}, ”priority“:{”href“:”/api/v3/priorities/8“, ”title“: ”normal“}, ”assignee“: {”href“: ”/api/v3/users/1"}}}}’;

xhr2.open(‘GET’, ‘mydomain/openproject/api/v3/projects/dsds/work_packages/’);
xhr2.setRequestHeader(‘API_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
xhr2.setRequestHeader(‘Content-type’, ‘application/json’);

xhr2.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr2.readyState 4 && xhr2.status 200) {
console.log(xhr2.responseText);
}
console.log(xhr2.readyState + “-” + xhr2.status);
};

xhr2.send(data);

Still i only get readyState == 4 and status = 0 in the console. the user admin is existing.

Do you know what the problem is?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards
Otmane
