Field - API to find issues closed by a specific person

[Anonymous]

I have an urgent issue I need assistance with. 

In one of my Field projects, the Issue permissions were changed to “Any role can close”.  A certain person closed issues created by the Architect, and there is now distrust on issues he has closed that the Architect does not consider really closed.

Can an API be written to query the history of  issues that were created by two Architects, and that were changed to “closed” by two CMs?  There are over four thousand issues, and it is not feasible to go into every one of these issues to view the history tab.

Hi lpotts, 

I took a look at response value of the following two calls:

/api/get_Issues 

/fieldapi/issues/v1/retrieve 

https://bim360field.autodesk.com/apidoc/index.html#mobile_api_method_18

https://bim360field.autodesk.com/apidoc/index.html#issues_api_method_9

Unfortunately, they don't include the information about who closed it. They include the creator (or author) and the date created and date closed. 

History is not exposed through API, either. 

The closest you can do is filter by authors (two architects), and a range of closed date. Hopefully, the number will be low enough to check who closed it manually after narrowed down.

(Who closed it seems to be a good information to keep in a record. Hopefully, the new Field will have all the information exposed through API in future.)
