Show advanced search options Select this option to enable users to widen a search to include Rally workspaces and projects.
Query filter

Specify a query filter using ${search_text} as a placeholder. You can search for names, descriptions, or IDs in Rally. Each filter clause consists of a tuple {field, operator, value} in this format:

((Name contains "${search_text}") OR ((Description contains "${search_text}") OR (FormattedID = "${search_text}")))

  • Name and description return any text that matches.
  • FormattedID only returns an exact match.

Use AND and OR to connect several filter clauses. If you have more than two clauses, use AND and OR to only connect two of them, see the Example Values column.

  • You must preserve the query structure, particularly the opening and closing parentheses.
  • Check available fields and their internal names at https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/doc/webservice
  • Returns a maximum of 200 results. If 200 results are returned there might be additional results, so refine your search to return less.
