Sync Redmine with another Redmine?

Question

Our company uses Redmine to track technical support problems, but sometimes these problems turn into an outsourced development team that has its own Redmine.

Has anyone ever discovered / written a synchronization between them so that a couple of problems can be synchronized: change A creates a change in B. I cannot find any directions using Google.

These two Redmine installations are located on separate web servers with separate databases.

Answer 1

I had a client asking about this, and the only way we could think of is to create a plugin to send problems back and forth using the REST API. We have not started the project, so I can not share it.

Answer 2

To achieve your goal, you must use the REST API for Redmine. You can write a script to sync them. You can synchronize two Redmine servers in minutes without writing a single line of code. There is a service called Zapier that makes it easy to connect a web service to another web service without the hassle of many options. You should check this out: http://zpr.io/gmXF

Answer 3

You can implement simple synchronization using the Redmine Java API http://code.google.com/p/redmine-java-api

There is an application that can download data from one Redmine and save to another - http://taskadapter.com , but supports only interactive (manual) sync, no "daemon syncs".
