Retrieve Information from TeamBinder

To automatically retrieve information from TeamBinder, create a new fetch task by following these steps. The connector runs each fetch task automatically, based on the schedule that is configured in the configuration file.

To create a new Fetch Task

  1. Stop the connector.
  2. Open the configuration file in a text editor.
  3. In the [FetchTasks] section of the configuration file, specify the number of fetch tasks using the Number parameter. If you are configuring the first fetch task, type Number=1. If one or more fetch tasks have already been configured, increase the value of the Number parameter by one (1). Below the Number parameter, specify the names of the fetch tasks, starting from zero (0). For example:

    [FetchTasks]
    Number=1
    0=MyTask
  4. Below the [FetchTasks] section, create a new TaskName section. The name of the section must match the name of the new fetch task. For example:

    [FetchTasks]
    Number=1
    0=MyTask
    
    [MyTask]
  1. In the new section, set the following configuration parameters:

    TeamBinderServiceUrlPrefix

    The base URL of the TeamBinder Web Services.

    To check that you have the correct URL, add /session.asmx to the end of the URL and open it in a web browser. If the URL is correct the browser will display a response listing the APIs that are supported.

    TeamBinderUserID The user ID to use to gain access to the TeamBinder API.
    TeamBinderPassword The password to use to gain access to the TeamBinder API.
    TeamBinderCompanyID The company ID to use to gain access to the TeamBinder API.
    UseSystemProxy (Optional) Specifies whether to obtain details about your HTTP proxy from the system.
  2. (Optional) There are additional parameters that you can set to choose the items that you want to synchronize. For a full list of parameters that you can use, refer to the TeamBinder Connector Reference.

    TeamBinderProjNo A comma-separated list of projects to synchronize. If you do not set this parameter, the connector synchronizes all projects that are accessible by the authenticated user.
    ProcessDocuments Specifies whether to process documents.
    ProcessMail Specifies whether to process mail.
    ProcessTransmittals Specifies whether to process transmittals.
  3. Save and close the configuration file.

    You can now start the connector.
