Task Report for Projects by Converted Issue Originator - Can it be done?

I am trying to build a task report to show tasks with a particular custom field but using the user wildcard to only display projects in which the user is the OpTaskOriginator.  I attempted the below using the API explorer and references across tables, but am getting an error.  Did I make a mistake in the text or am I trying to do something the system can't do?

 

DE:Key Date=Yes
DE:Key Date_Mod=in
project:status=CUR
project:status_Mod=in
project:convertedOpTaskOriginator:ID=$$USER.ID
project:convertedOpTaskOriginator:ID_Mod=in

 

Thanks.

I think you might have a typo in your code. I'm looking at the API explorer and I don't see the colon between originator and ID. In the api explorer under project, the converted optask originator ID is all one word.

so much of my troubleshooting of my own work has ended up with discovering typos! It's very common and ends up being the first thing I check against the API explorer. 🙂 The important thing is that your technique is sound, you just need your eyes checked LOL 😉
