API: Versions

Work Packages can be assigned to a version. As such, versions serve to group Work Packages into logical units where each group comprises all the work packages that needs to be finished in order for the version to be finished.

Actions

Link Description Condition
update Form endpoint that aids in preparing and performing edits on the version Permission: manage versions
updateImmediately Directly perform edits on the version Permission: manage versions

Linked Properties

Link Description Type Constraints Supported operations
self This version Version not null READ
definingProject The project to which the version belongs Project only present if the project is visible for the current user READ
availableInProjects Projects where this version can be used Projects not null READ

Depending on custom fields defined for versions, additional linked properties might exist.

Local Properties

Property Description Type Constraints Supported operations
id Version id Integer x > 0 READ
name Version name String not null, may not exceed 60 characters READ / WRITE
description Formattable READ / WRITE
startDate Date READ / WRITE
endDate Date READ / WRITE
status The current status of the version String not null, only ‘open’, ‘finished’, ‘closed’ READ / WRITE
sharing The current status of the version String not null, limited to fixed set as defined by form READ / WRITE
createdAt Time of creation DateTime not null READ
updatedAt Time of the most recent change to the version DateTime not null READ

Depending on custom fields defined for versions, additional properties might exist.

Methods

List versions available in a project

This endpoint lists the versions that are available in a given project. Note that due to sharing this might be more than the versions defined by that project.

id
integer

required path

ID of the project whose versions will be listed

Example:
1

404

Returned if the project does not exist or the client does not have sufficient permissions to see it.

Required permission: view work packages or manage versions (on given project)

Note: A client without sufficient permissions shall not be able to test for the existence of a project. That’s why a 404 is returned here, even if a 403 might be more appropriate.

List versions

Returns a collection of versions. The client can choose to filter the versions similar to how work packages are filtered. In addition to the provided filters, the server will reduce the result set to only contain versions, for which the requesting client has sufficient permissions (view_work_packages).

filters
string

optional query

JSON specifying filter conditions. Accepts the same format as returned by the queries endpoint. Currently supported filters are:

  • sharing: filters versions by how they are shared within the server (none, descendants, hierarchy, tree, system).

Example:
[{ "sharing": { "operator": "*", "values": ["system"] }" }]

Create version

Creates a new version applying the attributes provided in the body. Please note that while there is a fixed set of attributes, custom fields can extend a version’s attributes and are accepted by the endpoint.

You can use the form and schema to be retrieve the valid attribute values and by that be guided towards successful creation.

Required permission: view work packages or manage versions (any project where the version is available)

Note: A client without sufficient permissions shall not be able to test for the existence of a version. That’s why a 404 is returned here, even if a 403 might be more appropriate.

Returned if the version does not exist or the client does not have sufficient permissions to see it.

Required permission: view work packages or manage versions (any project where the version is available)

Note: A client without sufficient permissions shall not be able to test for the existence of a version. That’s why a 404 is returned here, even if a 403 might be more appropriate.
