Symptoms

When creating an asynchronous import job using P6 Web Services there is no way to retrieve the XML import log. The ReadJobLog call can be used to check the success or failure of the import job, but there is no log provided.  When running a synchronous import using P6 Web Services a log is returned.

The issue can be reproduced using the following steps:

1. Create a request to run an asynchronous import job. For example:
   

        <v1:ImportProjectAsyncASAP>
            <v1:CurrenciesImportInOption/>
            <v1:ImportProject>
               <v1:ProjectObjectId>4835</v1:ProjectObjectId>
               <v1:ImportOption>Create New</v1:ImportOption>
               <v1:EPSObjectId>28379</v1:EPSObjectId>
            </v1:ImportProject>
            <v1:ImportType>Primavera</v1:ImportType>
            <v1:ImportTemplateName/>
            <v1:PreImportCustomizationTemplateName>Default Import Template</v1:PreImportCustomizationTemplateName>
            <v1:FileType>XML</v1:FileType>
            <v1:IgnoreGUID>true</v1:IgnoreGUID>
            <v1:IgnoreSequenceNumber>true</v1:IgnoreSequenceNumber>
            <v1:LogLevel>FINEST</v1:LogLevel>
            <v1:ProjectData>cid:export.xml</v1:ProjectData>
         </v1:ImportProjectAsyncASAP>

2. Get the Job Id from the response. For example:
   

         <ImportProjectAsyncASAPResponse xmlns:cnp="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Primavera/P6/WS/WSImport/V1">
            <JobObjectId>2801</JobObjectId>
            <Success>true</Success>
            <SuccessMessage>An Asynchronous import job has been created. Check the status of the job using job ID.</SuccessMessage>
         </ImportProjectAsyncASAPResponse>

3. Use JobService ReadJobLog to get the Import details
   

         <v2:ReadJobLog>
            <v2:JobId>0:2801</v2:JobId>
         </v2:ReadJobLog>

4. The only response is basic job information. The full XML log is not returned in the response. For example:
   

         <ReadJobLogResponse xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Primavera/P6/WS/Job/V2">
            <JobLog>Import Project Log Run on Aug-02-2021 19:42</JobLog>
         </ReadJobLogResponse>
