Within Agile Workbench, Ability to import stories dialog not visible?
Hello,
Recently upgraded to Pega 7.3.
When opening up Agile Workbench, the ability to import user stories is not available. It is unclear what configuration is needed to do this.
Does anyone know what privilege or role is required to enable that ability? <appname>:Administrators doesn't seem to work?
Would it be linked to UIKit by any chance?
thank you,
Rob

Import stories from excel in Agile workbench is available only from Platform version 7.3.1 onwards. This functionality is not available in Pega Platform version 7.3

What steps are you taking to attempt the import? Are you using the 'Import Stories from Excel' option on the backlog?

I see an ImportStoriesFromExcel privilege associated with the 'Import Stories from Excel' option.

Hi CarissaW_GCS
I would like to use the ImportStoriesFromExcel option but the privilege doesn't seem to associated with my operator ID. Even though I am as Administrator which is, I believe, supposed to have that privilege by default. The application was created prior to version 7.3 but no custom "from scratch" roles/privileges were done so in theory it should be like creating a new application in the new version but it doesn't appear that way. Would the application stack have anything to do with that?

It looks like the system I was checking is 7.3.1 so I'm not sure if 7.3 is slightly different. Can you search for the ImportStoriesFromExcel privilege and see which roles are associated with it so you can add one of those roles to your access group?

That may be the hint. Under Records | Security | Privilege, a filter by ImportStoriesFromExcel returns no results.
So, I figure it exists but it's not available in the current application and/or ruleset stack.

Ok, thank you; you advice helped me in determining the differences.
Given this information, I looked at the Administrators access group for the application (which was created prior to 7.3.1), and noticed that the privilege pxAgileWorkbench was not configured for the @baseclass for the given Role. (which in new application builds in 7.3.1 are created by default).
Once I changed that, I was able to import user stories within DesignerStudio -> Agile Workbench.
