Getting started
Obtain YouTrack token for app
To start using T-REC you need to obtain the permanent token for your personal YouTrack account. Follow this instruction to get one:
- Log-in into your YouTrack in web browser
- Open http://[YOUTRACK_URL]/users/me page
- Click on the Update personal information and manage logins link
- Open the Authentication tab.
- Click the New token... button.
- Fill the name "T-rec"
- Add scope "YouTrack"
- Click Create Token
- You must copy the token at this point, because as soon as you close the dialog you will not be able to access the token itself again.
In case you don't see the "New Token" button make sure that you have Read Service and Update self permissions to issue a token in one of your YouTrack roles.
Before run
Before the first run of the app create an agile board with tasks assigned to you and schedule a sprint. Follow this instruction to get more info: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/standalone/Agile-Board.html
First run
Once you run T-REC add YouTrack account by entering your YouTrack URL and personal token. Then select boards you'd like to work with. Finally you may start recording the work you do with your tasks
Remarks
T-REC allows you to view your tasks which belong to the correctly scheduled current sprint on the agile board. T-REC will not display the task if it is not part of the sprint or is not assigned to you.
