Pulling Requests (IN, CR and SR) with Python XMLMC

[SamL]

Hi all, I've been trying to use Python to pull all request information so that we can do some offline analysis. I've been using XMLMC and have managed to pull Asset info, following an example from Steve G on here, but keep hitting a wall when it comes to Requests. I've looked through GitHub and the Hornbill wiki but still can't to get started, I'm sure I've missed something.

Using Steve's Asset example, I assumed it should be something like this:

...
xmlmc.add_param("application", "com.hornbill.servicemanager")
xmlmc.add_param("entity", "Requests")
json_string = xmlmc.invoke("data", "entityBrowseRecords2")
...

But this give the result:

You need the right 'app.h.searchEntityRecords' to perform this entity operation

Any pointers would be appreciated, thanks!

Have you tried adding this role to the user that you are using to authenticate to Hornbill?

Incredible, that was the problem. Thanks for that James.
