I’m trying to create a custom email for ClearQuest in order to:

  • format the message more neatly
  • include a hyperlink to a change request (which is based on the Defect schema) on our local intranet

The only way I know of to send an email is to add an email rule using a static form submission via a Email_Rule Stateless Record Type (which comes with the Defect schema). The only customization it allows is to select the fields to include in the email, the criteria specifying when to send the email (e.g. when the state changes), and who to send it to.

I’m assuming a script is run (either in VB or Perl) in order to aggregate the information needed for the email and perhaps another to actually send the email. I’m looking for one or both of those scripts. Does anyone know where those scripts are located on a ClearQuest server?

I’ve come across various references from IBM that pertain to custom emails, but none were very helpful.

We’re using ClearQuest v7.1.2. Does anyone know of any good references dealing with ClearQuest custom emails?
