To get all the childrens of a Workspace

I need to get all the file list which are available in the workspace irrespective of folders and sub folders.
For that, getAllChildern() method on workspace object will return a Collection.
How can We identify whether the returned object is a Foler or Document or any other workspace element.

You can use getAllFolders() and getAllFoldersByType() to get all folder list in a workspace and then you can iterate the folders one by one and could get all files.

Another way of doing this, you can use SearchArgument to search specific item type in workspace/facility and then you can perform further operations.

Hope this Help

Thanks for your reply,

Now i got the point.
SearchArgument is the correct soulution for my problem.
Where can i find some example code to configure SearchArgument using WOM API.

Nicholas

You will get the example in WOM API documentation. you can download it from support website.

Thanks Nicholas

A friendly reminder that "all" is relative. Depending on how the security is set up and the user that does the search, the results can be different. To be sure you get "all", run it as the workspace owner or as a trustee with the supervisor privilege.

Yes, definetly. cases are always at their place.

Thank you for your reply,

My requirement is to search the document based on the TAGS.
I will set a tag called "Exclusion" for some documents when i create it.

Now I need to get all the documents in the workspace which will contain the tag called "Exclusion".

For that , I configured a WorkspaceSearchArgument. In which ,what is the profile condition string in order to search based on the tag.

workspaceSearchArgument.setProfileCondition("_______");

Nicholas

I think this will be something like below

TAG LIKE \"%Exclusion%\" or
TAG = \"Exclusion\"

Thanks Nicholas

Get the Category object that has the tag you are looking for.

Integer tagSID = (Integer) tag.getPropertyValue("APP: Smiley Frustrated

ID");
String condition = "APP::LABEL_RSID = " + tagSID;
