Introduction to RT

Bryce Mecum

2021-05-14

Setup

To start using the rt package, log in to your RT instance by setting the server URL in using Sys.setenv and use rt_login() to log in and store your session locally.

Below, we log into Best Practical’s demo installation of RT:

library(rt)

Sys.setenv("RT_BASE_URL" = "https://demo.bestpractical.com")
rt_login() # Enter demo/demo

Once you are successfully logged in, you’re all set to use the package. The rt package supports all of the RequestTracker REST API:

Note: Most of these functions support being chained together (for example, with the %>%).

See the included vignettes for more information about usage.

Logging out

To log out, use the rt_logout function (or restart your R session):

rt_logout()

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
