The second use case in the Bugzilla business scenario is bug creation. This page describes the relevant tasks and the operations you use in the Bugzilla connector and the other ESB connectors.
Overview
The flow for bug creation is illustrated in the following diagram. The ESB connectors for FreshDesk and TSheets will be used to connect to each service.
Prerequisites
Tickets should have been created in FreshDesk with the type as 'Bugs' (predefined type).
Using the listTickets operation, retrieve tickets from FreshDesk which falls under the tag, 'Bugs' and create them as bugs in the Bugzilla API under the specific product and component using the createBug operation.
- Create the bug as tasks in the TSheets API using the addJobCodes operation under the relevant component and update the task ID for the bug in Bugzilla using the updateBug operation.
