QMetry: Fetch Requirements
qmetry_fetch_requirementsFetch QMetry requirements from a project with automatic viewId resolution. Supports filtering, sorting, and pagination to locate specific requirements.
Instructions
Fetch QMetry requirements - automatically handles viewId resolution based on project
Toolset: Requirements
Parameters:
projectKey (string): Project key - unique identifier for the project (default: "default")
baseUrl (string): The base URL for the QMetry instance (must be a valid URL)
viewId (number): ViewId for requirements - SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY RESOLVES THIS. Leave empty unless you have a specific viewId. System will fetch project info using the projectKey and extract latestViews.RQ.viewId automatically. Manual viewId only needed if you want to override the automatic resolution.
folderPath (string): Folder path for requirements - SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY SETS TO ROOT. Leave empty unless you want specific folder. System will automatically use empty string "" (root directory). Only specify if user wants specific folder like "Automation/Regression". (default: "")
start (number): Start index for pagination - defaults to 0 (default: 0)
page (number): Page number to return (starts from 1) (default: 1)
limit (number): Number of records (default 10). (default: 10)
scope (string): Scope of the operation - defines the context for data retrieval. Common values: 'project' (default), 'folder', 'release', 'cycle'. Applies to any entity type being fetched or operated upon. (default: "project")
getSubEntities (boolean): Whether to include sub-entities.
hideEmptyFolders (boolean): Whether to hide empty folders.
folderSortColumn (string): Folder sort column (default 'name')
folderSortOrder (string): Folder sort order (ASC or DESC)
isJiraFilter (boolean): 'false' if using qmetry filter (default: false)
filterType (enum): Pass 'QMETRY' or 'JIRA' (default: "QMETRY")
filter (string): Filter criteria as JSON string (default '[]') (default: "[]")
udfFilter (string): User-defined field filter as JSON string (default '[]') (default: "[]")
sort (string): Sort Records - refer json schema, Possible property - name, entityKey, associatedVersion, priorityAlias, createdDate, createdByAlias, updatedDate, updatedByAlias, requirementStateAlias, linkedTcCount, linkedDfCount, attachmentCount, createdSystem, owner (default: "[{"property":"name","direction":"ASC"}]")
Output Description: JSON object with 'data' array containing requirements and pagination info
Use Cases: 1. List all requirements in a project 2. Search for specific requirements using filters 3. Browse requirements in specific folders 4. Get paginated requirement results 5. Filter requirements by name or properties 6. Get requirement metadata for test planning
Examples:
Get all requirements from default project - system will auto-fetch viewId
{}Expected Output: List of requirements from default project with auto-resolved viewId
Get all requirements from UT project - system will auto-fetch UT project's viewId
{
"projectKey": "UT"
}Expected Output: List of requirements from UT project using UT's specific RQ viewId
Get requirements with manual viewId (skip auto-resolution)
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"viewId": 7397,
"folderPath": "/APIARY 88"
}Expected Output: Requirements using manually specified viewId 7397
Search for specific requirements by entity key
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"MAC-RQ-123\",\"field\":\"entityKeyId\"}]"
}Expected Output: Filtered requirements matching the entity key criteria
Search for multiple requirements by comma-separated entity keys
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"MAC-RQ-123,MAC-RQ-456,MAC-RQ-789\",\"field\":\"entityKeyId\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements matching any of the specified entity keys
Filter requirements by state (e.g., Open, Approved)
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"Open\",\"field\":\"requirementStateAlias\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements with 'Open' state
Filter requirements by priority
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"High\",\"field\":\"priorityAlias\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements with 'High' priority
Filter requirements by archive status
{
"filter": "[{\"value\":[1,0],\"type\":\"list\",\"field\":\"isArchived\"}]"
}Expected Output: List of requirements filtered by archive status (archived and non-archived)
Get only archived requirements
{
"filter": "[{\"value\":[1],\"type\":\"list\",\"field\":\"isArchived\"}]"
}Expected Output: List of only archived requirements
Sort requirements by name in ascending order
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"sort": "[{\"property\":\"name\",\"direction\":\"ASC\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements sorted alphabetically by name
Sort requirements by creation date (newest first)
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"sort": "[{\"property\":\"createdDate\",\"direction\":\"DESC\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements sorted by creation date, newest first
Sort requirements by entity key
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"sort": "[{\"property\":\"entityKey\",\"direction\":\"ASC\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements sorted by entity key (MAC-RQ-1, MAC-RQ-2, etc.)
Sort requirements by linked test case count
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"sort": "[{\"property\":\"linkedTcCount\",\"direction\":\"DESC\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements sorted by number of linked test cases, highest first
Complex filter: Requirements by owner with specific state
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"john.doe\",\"field\":\"owner\"},{\"type\":\"string\",\"value\":\"Approved\",\"field\":\"requirementStateAlias\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements owned by john.doe with 'Approved' state
Multi-field sort: Priority first, then creation date
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"sort": "[{\"property\":\"priorityAlias\",\"direction\":\"DESC\"},{\"property\":\"createdDate\",\"direction\":\"ASC\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements sorted by priority (High to Low), then by creation date (oldest first)
Filter requirements by specific release and cycle
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"value\":[55178],\"type\":\"list\",\"field\":\"release\"},{\"value\":[111577],\"type\":\"list\",\"field\":\"cycle\"}]"
}Expected Output: Requirements associated with Release 8.12 (ID: 55178) and Cycle 8.12.1 (ID: 111577)
Filter requirements by release only
{
"projectKey": "MAC",
"filter": "[{\"value\":[55178],\"type\":\"list\",\"field\":\"release\"}]"
}Expected Output: All requirements associated with Release 8.12 (ID: 55178)
Hints: 1. CRITICAL WORKFLOW: Always use the SAME projectKey for both project info and requirement fetching 2. Step 1: If user specifies projectKey (like 'UT', 'MAC'), use that EXACT projectKey for project info 3. Step 2: Get project info using that projectKey, extract latestViews.RQ.viewId 4. Step 3: Use the SAME projectKey and the extracted RQ viewId for fetching requirements 5. Step 4: If user doesn't specify projectKey, use 'default' for both project info and requirement fetching 6. NEVER mix project keys - if user says 'MAC project', use projectKey='MAC' for everything 7. For search by requirement key (like MAC-RQ-123), use filter: '[{"type":"string","value":"MAC-RQ-123","field":"entityKeyId"}]' 8. For multiple entity keys, use comma-separated values: '[{"type":"string","value":"MAC-RQ-123,MAC-RQ-456","field":"entityKeyId"}]' 9. Use empty string '' as folderPath for root directory 10. Filter supports QMETRY and JIRA types - default is QMETRY 11. FILTER FIELDS: entityKeyId, name, requirementStateAlias, priorityAlias, owner, createdByAlias, updatedByAlias, createdSystem 12. SORT FIELDS: name, entityKey, associatedVersion, priorityAlias, createdDate, createdByAlias, updatedDate, updatedByAlias, requirementStateAlias, linkedTcCount, linkedDfCount, attachmentCount, createdSystem, owner 13. SORT DIRECTIONS: ASC (ascending), DESC (descending) 14. Multiple filters: Use array with multiple objects for AND conditions 15. Multiple sort criteria: Use array with multiple objects, first takes priority 16. Filter format: [{'type':'string','value':'filterValue','field':'fieldName'}] 17. Sort format: [{'property':'fieldName','direction':'ASC|DESC'}] 18. RELEASE/CYCLE FILTERING: Use release and cycle IDs from fetch_releases_and_cycles tool 19. For specific release: '[{"value":[releaseId],"type":"list","field":"release"}]' 20. For specific cycle: '[{"value":[cycleId],"type":"list","field":"cycle"}]' 21. For release AND cycle: '[{"value":[releaseId],"type":"list","field":"release"},{"value":[cycleId],"type":"list","field":"cycle"}]' 22. Example: Release 8.12 (ID: 55178) + Cycle 8.12.1 (ID: 111577) = filter with both IDs
