Get custom field values from a URL?

Added by Sir Will over 3 years ago

Hello,

Does someone know of a plugin or another way which allows to read the values for a custom field from an external URL (for example in json format)?
I have a list of names which change frequently and I don't want to manually update the custom field every time. I thought about adding the values via JavaScript but redmine prevents this by verifying the values when submitting.

Hi, did someone find something about this?

Hi, unfortunately redmine does not permit to set custom fields possible values with API tools (that was the preferred way IMO).
You could permit your users (some of them) to edit custom_fields possible values with this plugin (https://github.com/fathomssen/redmine_edit_custom_fields).

Thanks

Thanks, Sir Will. Is this plugin 4.x compatible or not?
