Summary

Rest API query to add "Portfolio member" role through API.

Solution

While trying to update teams to the Portfolio role with role id “12” or while adding the “Portfolio member” role, we observe an error as “Cannot update user with id xxxx. ( 12 ) roleId cannot be set for this team type”.

Valid values for Portfolio roleId are:

• 15 (Business Owner)

• 16 (Enterprise Architect)

• 17 (Epic Owner)

In UI if you go to a team's slide-out > Members tab and click the appropriate dropdown you should be able to select only 15,16,17 roles.

To add "Portfolio member" role IDs 15, 16, and 17 through API, please use the below syntax.

[
{
    "op": "add",
    "path": "teams/-",
    "value":
    {
        "teamId": 111111,
        "roleId": 15
    }
}
]
