UI Widgets Basic Example Authentication

Kayla_Boyer

Hello,
I am attempting to connect to the content server API to create a Folder Browser Widget from my local machine.
Every thing appears to be correct, but when I attempt to authenticate all I get back is "Unknown Error". This is not a very helpful error, and it is difficult to step through the javascript and jquery to see where this are going wrong. Any tips on how to solve this?

csui.onReady(function () {

new csui.FolderBrowserWidget({
  placeholder: "#browser",
 connection: { url: "http://kchead/test/livelink.exe/otcs/cs/api/v1", supportPath: "/img" }
}).display();

});

You'll find the complete error information on the web browser console, but you won't find more explanation there. Unknown error means that there was no parseable answer from the servwe. Usual causes are wrong connection parameters (url and/or supportPath) or CORS misconfiguration.

Looking at your sample, "http://kchead/test/livelink.exe/otcs/cs/api/v1" appears wrong - you should drop either "test/livelink.exe" of "otcs/cs". The URL value should be "(llcgiurl)/api/v1".
