Upon invoking the applications REST API, the technical debt retuned seems to be in a different unit, instead of person-days. That is the value of Technical Debt on the CAST Highlight Dashboard is different compared to API results.
Details
Technical Debt is the total amount of effort required to remediate all occurrences which do not comply with coding best practices.
The Technical Debt raw value you can get from the API is expressed in minutes, the dashboards eventually aggregate in hours or person days (8 hours per day).
More information can be found at Enhanced Technical Debt Estimates
NB: In CAST Highlight Dashboard, from MANAGE PORTFOLIO > Manage Technical Debt Effort the Portfolio Manager,can edit the Effort value (necessary time to fix a code insight) and Effort unit (minute, hour, person-day).
