Options for working with inner collections

If you'd like to get an inner collection there is an option to either include it into the list of retrieved fields, or to query this collection directly:

  • /api/v1/tasks?include=[Id,Name,Comments]&take=100&innertake=1000
  • /api/v1/comments?where=(General.EntityType.Name eq 'Task')&include=[Id,Name,General]&take=1000

We recommend using the second approach.

Here are some popular queries:
  • get Tasks created last months:
    /api/v1/tasks?where=(CreateDate gte '2017-01-01')and(CreateDate lte '2017-01-31')&take=1000

  • get Tasks closed last months:
    /api/v1/tasks?where=(EndDate gte '2017-01-01')and(EndDate lte '2017-01-31')&take=1000

  • get Tasks in the current iteration:
    /api/v1/tasks?where=(Iteration.IsCurrent eq 'true')&take=1000

  • get Tasks in the current release:
    /api/v1/tasks?where=(Release.IsCurrent eq 'true')&take=1000

  • get Tasks created by user ID#1:
    /api/v1/tasks?where=(Owner.Id eq 1)&include=[Id,Name,CreateDate,StartDate,EndDate,EntityState]&take=1000
