Invoking a dm_process using Documentum Restful Services

Hi there!

I am new to Documentum. I would like to know how to execute a dm_process using restful services of Documentum or DQL. The dm_process i need to execute requires 4 input arguments. An example on how to do this would greatly be appreciated

Thanks & Regards

Hi Fakhar,

As far as we know it's not possible

Also check this link:

The DCTM-REST API is limited in its functionalities. We hope for more functionalities in the future!

Check for updates:

You can easily "skip" the DQL limitation:

There's also some post on how to extend the RESTServcies:

Thanks for the response Antal. Is there any other way to achieve the same from another application. Actually we have an application that consume DCTM-REST to upload and manage documents on Documentum. That application needs to execute an internal process on Documentum, so, is there any other way to achieve this if not possible with DCTM-REST.

Thanks & Regards

I think Alvaro has a good point on extending the REST API for your custom needs.

Otherwise i would say to write something (like a webservice) that executes custom DFC/DFS code that handles the flow execution.

You can also checkout Process Integrator where you can start a process from a http-request.
