Integration

URL Format
In some cases, it might be beneficial to have a simplified user interface for entering the new issues into Issue Tracker. You can use the following URL template to provide a direct link to the Insert Issue page:
http(s)://<Issue Tracker URL>/Portal/AddIssue.aspx?ProjectID=XX&Title=XXX&IssueTypeID=XX&Build=XX 
  • Project ID can be found in "Edit Project" window (right click on a project - "Edit/Update subscription");
  • Title, Buil - any text;
  • IssueTypeID:
    1. Defect;
    2. Feature;
    3. Task;
    4. Ticket;

Look and feel
You can modify look and feel of the simplified Insert Issue page by changing file /Img/InsertIssuePortal.jpg

Examples
 If my Issue Tracker URL is: http://IKOSoftware.com/IssueTracker2, and I want my users to send feature (IssueTypeID=2) requests for Project "Test Project" (ID=37), and biuld version "v57beta", I will use the following URL:  http://IKOSoftware.com/IssueTracker2/Portal/AddIssue.aspx?ProjectID=37&Build=v57beta&IssueTypeID=2

Access Rights
By default, the user does not have to have a valid account to access the page - anyone can post issues.
To restrict anonymous users from posting issues, uncomment <deny users="?" /> line in Portal/Web.config file. The file should look like this: 

<?xml version="1.0" 
            encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <deny users="?" />
            <allow users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</configuration>


To allow only registered users to post issues, comment out <deny users="?" /> line, leave only <allow users="*" /> line. The file should look like this: 

<?xml version="1.0" 
            encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow 
        users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</configuration>
