$documentSource.getDocumentURLs( $document.id ) returns a list of DocumentUrl. What is the proper usage of this function to create a hyperlink to the item in Jama Connect?

    Hi @Alan Bushey

    if I remember correctly it is returning the links (from the Link widget).

    I generate manually the item URL (via VTL macro)

    <a href="$baseUrl/perspective.req#/items/$itemid?projectId=$project.id" target="_blank">$text</a>

    I hope it helps,

    Thanks @

    #macro ( getHyperlink $hldoc )## removing white space
    #if ( $hldoc.Id )##
    #set ( $baseUrl = $project.organization.baseUrl)##

    #set ( $hldocid = $hldoc.Id )##
    <a href="$baseUrl/perspective.req#/items/$hldocid?projectId=$hldoc.projectId">${hldocid}${hldoc.projectId}</a>##

    #end##
    #end##

    Seems I am unable to edit the above comment because the edit box wasn't appearing on the page. Seems to work for this comment though…

    Thank you, Alessandro.

    I posted the macro I am currently using in the above reply as an example. I wanted to point out that you should use the project ID from the item, not from the project where the report was exported from. Jama will open a web page for the item URL, but the project loaded in the background could be incorrect if the item is from a different project.

    I am still wondering what $documentSource.getDocumentURLs does since it returns a list…
