Hi team,

For one of the reporting purpose we need to download the MTM test result attachments into local folder. We are planning to automate this process and unable to find any solution.Could anyone help in suggesting a best way to dowload attachments from test run using testrunid.

Regards

    Hello Praseena,

    You can try to use API to get test result attachment. Please refer to this document Attachments – Get Test Result Attachment Zip, and use parameter runId then download a test result attachment by using (for example) https://{instance}/{collection}/{project}/_apis/test/Runs/{runId}/Results/{testCaseResultId}/attachments/{attachmentId}?api-version=5.0-preview.1

    Besides, it’s not possible to automate this process, you may need to download the attachments manually.

    Best Regards,
    Tianyu
