Hi all,

task management allows to configure servers of a variety of pre-sets (Tools -> Tasks and Contexts ... -> Configure Servers). Unfortunately, ALM Octane is not among them. I tried to set it up as a Generic server, but this seems not that easy.

Is there a pre-configuration for ALM Octane in this context?

If not, has anyone succeeded to set up ALM Octane as Generic server and can share the configuration or give me some hints?

Best regards,

Tobias

Please follow the documentation page to learn how to configure Generic task-server https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/tutorial-configuring-generic-task-server.html .

If the problem remains could you clarify a bit more details about the problems you encountered?

Hi Egor,

thank you for your response! Am I really the first person in this world who wants to integrate ALM Octane with IntelliJ?

I had tried it before and back then, the issue was that I could not enter a separate login URL. Now I can do that, but the login requires POST data like this:

 {"client_id":"<user name>","client_secret":"<password>"}

In the log file, I see the following:

2020-11-19 09:36:22,178 [59398881] DEBUG - httpclient.wire.content - << " "error_code": "platform.request_general_error",[\n]" 
2020-11-19 09:36:22,178 [59398881] DEBUG - httpclient.wire.content - << " "description": "Incorrect request body.",[\n]"

Here is my configuration:

How can I configure the POST data for login?

Best regards,

Tobias

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment. The only behavior for the specified login URL (when POST method is selected) is to send its query parameters as "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" form data. Sending arbitrary JSON payload is not supported. Feel free to submit a feature request about such functionality at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA.
