Work item APIs

Companies that own or link to Agile Process Teams use these APIs to add, update, and complete work items. Work items facilitate collaboration and data exchange across multiple enterprises or partners. They are specifically built to support use cases where interaction between separate businesses, partners, or stakeholders is required. Work items provide shared visibility into key data and processes for all participating enterprises while ensuring security, access control, and traceability.

Add work item

Owners and Partners use this API to add a new work item to the Owner's company network, including any initial comments or file attachments. The response returns a generated identifier for the new work item.

New tasks are assigned the Draft base state by default.

Contact your TraceLink Services representative for more information about using this API.

Edit work item

Owners and Partners use this API to modify an existing work item with new, updated, or corrected information (e.g. adding a description, updating the assignee company details, fixing a typo) and to update the workflow state (e.g. manually transitioning the base state from Draft to ToDo to indicate that the work assigned in the work item has started).

Contact your TraceLink Services representative for more information about using this API.

Owners and Partners can use this API to search for a work item in the existing list of work items. Provide a list of sort fields, page size, and paging info to search for a work item.
