    Hello Mike,

    Could you please provide any examples of what API requests do you use to make ID changed and how do you check that ID was changed? Please share API calls and json results.

    Hi Alexander,

    I am not having the same issue today. The IDs now see to be persisting. Yesterday, I ran multiple tests using different time entries and all of them were being assigned a new ID after making any type of update.

    I assume that your API team may have identified this issue and resolved it. If I encounter the problem again, I will post the API calls and JSON data.

     

    Thanks Alexander!

    Hi Mike!

    We haven't touched anything in API IDs in the latest releases. IDs should be persistent per Worklogs or per the same array of worklogs (if grouped).

    Could it be that you've changed the array of worklogs (groups) -> RowID has been changed?

    Regards,

    Andarth

    Hi Andarth,

    I did have an issue where I was grouping the work logs and thus the ID was changing when I did not want it to. However, I am 99% positive that even with the grouping turned off, I was still seeing the IDs change while using Postman with the 2.1 and 3.0-preview APIs. The 3.0 does not group from what I can tell, correct? 

    Just for reference, here are the 2 API calls I was making:

    2.1 - https://bitwizards-devops.timehub.7pace.com/api/odata/TimeExport(StartDate='2019-05-17',EndDate='2019-05-17',PopulateTopParentColumns=true,GroupTimeByDateByUser=false,IncludeBillable=true)?api-version=2.1

    3.0-preview - https://bitwizards-devops.timehub.7pace.com/api/rest/workLogs/all?$fromCreatedTimestamp=2019-05-17&api-version=3.0-preview

    However, I cannot reproduce the issue I was having and it is certainly possible I am just crazy or was doing something incorrectly yesterday. I think we can close this issue and I will open a new one and provide better detail if it starts happening again.

    Thanks Andarth!

    Thanks for the info!

    >The 3.0 does not group from what I can tell, correct

    Yes, you are right, in API v3 all groupings should be done on your side.

    Some insights: a new version of API will have new powerfull features, including grouping.

    Please feel free to contact us at any time!

    Regards,

    Andarth!
