Retrieve Project Name

Question

How do you get the project name in Rally?

I'm working with a grid app and all I'm trying to do is include a 'Project' field for the grid view. However, because 'Project' is actually an object, the resulting field is '[object Object]'. So, how is it possible to get the name in string type?

Here's the code from my columnCfgs that deals with making the field.

{ text: 'Project', dataIndex: this.getContext().getProject().get },

Try this.getContext().getProject()._refObjectName or this.getContext().getProject().Name

In some cases it is useful to print and explore the object in the console, because it may be that you need to traverse project.data._refObjectName as in this gist, or in your case:

Ext.define('CustomApp', {
    extend: 'Rally.app.App',
    componentCls: 'app',
    items:{ html:'<a href="https://help.rallydev.com/apps/2.0/doc/">App SDK 2.0 Docs</a>'},
    launch: function() {
        var currentProject = this.getContext().getProject();
        console.log(currentProject);
        this.add({
            xtype:'container',
            html: currentProject.Name
        });

    }
});
