FunctionalSpecs_Update Operation

Applies to QAComplete 14.3, last modified on February 19, 2024
Since release 10.2, this functionality is obsolete and is supported for backward compatibility only. We recommend that you use QAComplete REST API to access and manage data in QAComplete.

Finds a requirement by ID and replaces its data with that of the specified FunctionalSpec object.

You usually use the FunctionalSpecs_Load operation to get a Requirement by ID, change some of its properties, and pass the updated object to the FunctionalSpecs_Update operation. All uninitialized properties will be cleared.

Requirements

The authenticating user must belong to a security group that has the Update privilege for Requirements.

Parameters

The operation uses the following parameters:

AuthenticationData  :  AuthenticationData, required

An AuthenticationData object containing the login information and the project ID that contains the requirement.

FunctionalSpec  :  FunctionalSpec, required

A FunctionalSpec object that contains the new information for the requirement.

SendEmailAlert  :  string, required

Y means send an email alert to the subscribed users after updating the requirement.

Any other value (for example, N or empty string) means do not send email alerts.

Result

None.

Remarks

The FunctionalSpec object has matching Id and Name properties, for example, FolderId and FolderName. To set them, specify the value only for the Id property. The corresponding Name property will be set automatically.

Example

Sample Code

C#

string login = "[email protected]";
string password = "p@ssword";
int projId = 10372;
// Specifying the requirement ID to be updated
int Id = 12;


ServiceSoapClient service = new ServiceSoapClient();

// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.GetLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.AppCode = loginInfo.AppCode;
authData.UserId = loginInfo.UserId;
authData.PassCode = password;
authData.DeptId = loginInfo.DeptId;
authData.ProjId = projId;

// Preparing the requirement
FunctionalSpec requirement = new FunctionalSpec();

// Loading all existing data of the requirement
requirement = service.FunctionalSpecs_Load(authData, Id);

// Specifying new properties of the requirement
requirement.StatusCode = "Active";
requirement.AssigneeUserId = 24667;
// Updating the requirement
service.FunctionalSpecs_Update(authData, requirement, "");

Java

String login = "[email protected]";
String password = "p@ssword";
int projId = 10372;
// Specifying the requirement ID to be updated
int Id = 12;

ServiceSoap service = new Service().getServiceSoap12();

// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.getLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.setAppCode(loginInfo.getAppCode());
authData.setUserId(loginInfo.getUserId());
authData.setPassCode(password);
authData.setDeptId(loginInfo.getDeptId());
authData.setProjId(projId);

// Preparing the functionalSpec object
FunctionalSpec requirement = new FunctionalSpec();

// Loading all the existing data of the requirement
requirement = service.functionalSpecsLoad(authData, Id);

// Specifying new properties of the requirement
requirement.setStatusCode("Active");
requirement.setAssignedToName("Fry, Alex");

// Updating the requirement
service.functionalSpecsUpdate(authData, requirement, "");
