Description of problem: Please add a new Ext. BZ Tracker for TCMS Test Cases Example link for TCMS Test Case ID 109534 https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/case/109534/ Only members of RH group should have access to this tracker This request has been approved on behalf of Platform QE, Middleware QE and Cloud QE.
Will require a quick code change to restrict visibility. This should be part of next weeks Bugzilla release. -- simon
To confirm, you mean to restrict visibility of the Ext. BZ entry from non-redhat group members? Will that ^^^ be in next weeks BZ release or the whole RFE? When is next weeks BZ release? Will we have a opportunity to test? :)
(In reply to comment #2) > To confirm, you mean to restrict visibility of the Ext. BZ entry from > non-redhat group members? That is correct. Adding the external trackers themselves does not require a code change. Restricting them to a certain group privilege does require code changes, and this must go through the standard code release process, unless it is deemed urgent (e.g. security bug, or major issue affecting performance) > Will that ^^^ be in next weeks BZ release or the whole RFE? The whole thing will be in next weeks release. If I add the external trackers now, they will be visible to everyone. If you are happy for this to happen, please reply to this ticket. > When is next weeks BZ release? Releases are put on https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/ on Wednesday, and put on the live servers Thursday afternoon (both dates US EDT) > Will we have a opportunity to test? :) Yes. They will be put on my bugzilla development server in the next couple of hours. -- simon
I'm merging 740260 into this ticket to make it easier to manage similar changes: Description of problem: Please add a new Ext. BZ Tracker for TCMS Test Plans Example link for TCMS Test Plan ID 4645 https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/plan/4645/
*** Bug 740260 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
There is no rush on this. Let it go through standard cod release process. Looking forward to seeing this in action.
Please test this change at https://bug740258.bz-devel.eng.bne.redhat.com/ (link valid until code is committed to trunk) and let me know of any issues you find. This will be scheduled to go into next weeks Bugzilla release. -- simon
I would say the description could be in the signular (Case/Plan) rather than plural (Cases/Plans) I see there's a column for 'status'. I'll CC: you and the TCMS devel team to figure out if and how we might get the case/plan status column update there as well.

And is 'last updated' referring to when the ext. link was actually last updated (externally) or when bugzilla last fetched the summary/status info for the ext. link?

For SFDC and JIRA we use RPC to get these values.(In reply to comment #10) (In reply to comment #10) > Is the status updated only when added or do you have some cron job that checks > status of all ext. links periodically? We get them via RPC. If the user's browser supports Javascript, it will be updated when the user visits the bug page.

After further discussions, it has been requested that we use XMLRPC to update the status and summary details from TCMS, as we currently do for JIRA issues. The documentation for this is: https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/xmlrpc/ I have asked the tcms team to set Bugzilla up with an account so it can log in at get the required information. Changing status of this bug to assigned until I have made those changes. -- simon
On seconds thoughts, can you please create a separate bug for getting the information from TCMS to Bugzilla to update the summary and status columns. This is going to be a lot more complex than a simple RPC call. This bug will deal with just the creation of the new trackers. -- simon
(In reply to comment #6) > There is no rush on this. Let it go through standard cod release process. > > Looking forward to seeing this in action. This change is now live. As mentioned in comment #14, please create a new bug for getting the status and summary columns updated from TCMS, if this functionality is required. -- simon
