Issue/Introduction

When using the Database Connector and adding a user type field such as Owner or CreatedBy to the fetch line of a config file, the following error is seen in the log:

ERROR: AgileCentralConnection.getAgileCentralData - Problem in fields loop for HierarchicalRequirement with OID of <OBJECT_OID> field name: Owner, skipping item
<class 'KeyError'>​​​​​​​

Environment

DB Connector 1.1.0

Cause

This is caused by not having a ResolveUser parameter configured in the YML file.

Resolution

Add a ResolveUser configuration parameter to the AgileCentral: section and set the value to False.

Example

DatabaseConnector:
    AgileCentral:
        Server     :  rally1.rallydev.com
        Username   :  <USERNAME>
        Password   :  <PASSWORD>
        Workspaces :
            - Workspace: <WORKSPACE>
        Project :
            - <PROJECT>
        Entities : HierarchicalRequirement
        Fetch : Owner
        ResolveUser: False
