  • Publication number: 20210367833
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus that facilitates attachment of a file to a ticket created by using a requirement management service. The information processing apparatus connects to a server that provides a requirement management service. A first acquisition unit acquires input items for creating a ticket, from the requirement management service. A setting unit sets parameters of the acquired setting items in accordance with a user operation. A generation unit generates a creation request for requesting creation of a ticket on which the set parameters are reflected. A second acquisition unit acquires data to be attached to the ticket as a file. A transmission unit transmits the creation request in a state having the acquired data attached thereto, to the server.
