Setting up an external application

Written by

  • Network access
  • Authentication
  • Getting information about linked objects
  • Creating links in an application upon request from Tracker
  • Removing links in an application upon request from Tracker

To enable Tracker to exchange data with an application, configure network access and authentication.

To make sure Tracker supports advanced functionality of links to your application, such as displaying detailed information about related objects or creating links in an external application upon request from Tracker, you need to implement support for these features in the application.

Network access

Your application must be available via a public address on the internet.

Authentication

To authenticate requests sent from Tracker to external applications, you can use one of the following approaches:

  • Without authentication

  • OAuth

    The header passes the token of the user on whose behalf the request to the application is being made.

Getting information about linked objects

To enable the Tracker interface to display detailed information about a linked object, the application should pass the following information upon request:

  • Method: GET

  • URL: scheme://host:port*{{remoteKey}}*

where:

  • remoteKey is the key of the linked object in the application.
  • * is any sequence of characters.

For example: https://my-app.ru:8080/1234/info

Expected response format: A list of parameters in JSON format

Parameter Type Description
key String Object key. Required.
summary String Object name. Required.
iconUrl String Icon URL. Optional.
Used if a different icon needs to be displayed for objects in a certain status.
status Object Object status. Optional.
Contains the following fields:
  • name (string): Name.
  • description (string, optional): Description.
resolution Object Resolution. Optional.
Contains the following fields:
  • name (string): Name.
  • description (string, optional): Description.
assignee Object Assignee. Optional.
Contains the following fields:
  • trackerUid(long integer, optional): Tracker user ID.
  • passportUid (long integer, optional): Yandex ID (previously Yandex.Passport) user ID.
  • login (string, optional): Username.
updated String Update date and time in YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss±hhmm format. Optional.
deadline String Deadline in YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss±hhmm format. Optional.

Creating links in an application upon request from Tracker

When a link to an external object is created in Tracker, Tracker can send a request to the application to create a duplicate link in it. To do this, the application must support creating links upon request:

  • Method: POST.

  • URL: Set by the application developer.

  • Request body: A list of parameters in JSON format

    Parameter Type Description
    issueKey String Tracker issue key.
    entityIds Array of strings IDs of application objects linked to the issue.

Removing links in an application upon request from Tracker

When removing a link to an external object in Tracker, Tracker can send a request to an application to remove this link from the application. To do this, the application must support removing links upon request:

  • Method: DELETE

  • URL: scheme://host:port*{{issueKey}}*{{remoteKey}}|{{remoteKey}}*{{issueKey}}*

where:

  • issueKey is the key of the issue in Tracker.

  • remoteKey is the key of the linked object in the application.

  • * is any sequence of characters.

You can specify issue and object keys in any order.

For example: https://my-app.ru:8080/links/?action=del&ticket=TEST-123&obj=1234
