Name of Feature/Request: Add ability to update Task Custom Status using API
What financial, time savings, or quality of life improvements will occur from this: Frequency: Multiple times a day | For a lot of the development Project Management we have pipelines that run in GitLab that automate deploying updated code to an instance of the website, then once the pipeline finishes someone has to manually move the task over in the project board to a “Ready To Verify” column so QA knows to test the task. The goal is to automate moving tasks over on the project board once a task has been successfully merged in. I was planning on working on a project to do this, but there is no endpoint in the Striven API that would allow me to update a task’s project status.
Current Issues with this process:- Developers/Leads have to keep an eye on the pipeline and wait for it to complete (Can take an average of 5-10 mins to run)- Developers/Leads can get distracted and forget to move the task over which will cause a delay in testing
Goals:- With automation we would save Developers’/Leads’ time- We could standardize how tasks are moved over- Will minimize testing delays
Attempted Solutions So Far: Currently developers/leads manually move tasks over in Striven once they have confirmed the code has been deployed successfully. This works, but could easily be automated.
Digging deep - Any additional Why behind this request / How was this accomplished before Striven in what system or software: Previously accomplished: Currently developers/leads are manually moving tasks over once the task code is merged successfully into a test instance
