Syncing Security Level from Rally to JIRA - jira

Question

I'm trying to sync Defects from Rally to Bugs in JIRA (syncing new Bugs from JIRA to Defects in Rally is working fine), but I was getting the following error due to Security Level in JIRA being a required field:
[2012-08-16 08:24:52 Z] ERROR : JiraConnection.rescue in attempt_create - Trying to create issue: 'Testing Security Level' resulted in exception SOAP::FaultError
[2012-08-16 08:24:52 Z] WARN : JiraConnection.initialize - com.atlassian.jira.rpc.exception.RemoteValidationException: {security=Security Level is required.} : []
I created a custom field in Rally with the following properties:
Name: Security Level
Display Name: Security Level
Type: Drop Down List
Drop Down list Values: None, Reporter and Company, Vendor and Company, Company Only
Hidden: Unchecked
Occurrences: 1
Required: Unchecked
and added the following to my XML configuration:
<FieldMapping>
...
<Field><Rally>Security Level</Rally><Other>Security Level</Other></Field>
...
</FieldMapping>
<OtherFieldHandlers>
...
<OtherEnumFieldHandler>
<FieldName>Security Level</FieldName>
<Mappings>
<Field><Rally>None</Rally><Other>-1</Other></Field>
<Field><Rally>Reporter and Company</Rally><Other>10050</Other></Field>
<Field><Rally>Vendor and Company</Rally><Other>10052</Other></Field>
<Field><Rally>Company Only</Rally><Other>10031</Other></Field>
</Mappings>
</OtherEnumFieldHandler>
...
</OtherFieldHandlers>
but now it's failing with:
[2012-08-16 09:45:32 Z] ERROR : Connector.block in validate - FieldMapping: Rally field "Security Level" not found
[2012-08-16 09:45:32 Z] ERROR : ConnectorRunner.rescue in run_services - Unexpected exception occurred
[2012-08-16 09:45:32 Z] ERROR : ConnectorRunner.exception - Message Invalid Configuration
I've tried different combinations of "Security Level", "securityLevel", etc. for the field name in Rally and updated the XML file accordingly when I've tried different combinations, but I always get the same "not found" error.
Am I missing something obvious here? Is there a more standard way of mapping Security Level?
Cheers,
Andrew.

Answer 1

Currently the Rally JIRA Connector cannot sync issues from Rally which require a Security Level in JIRA because the connector only uses the createIssue call and not the createIssueWithSecurityLevel call.

Answer 2

for the field names in Rally, the wsapi strips out spaces and underscores - try just SecurityLevel in the field mapping and in the field handler.
hope that helps
