Create "E-mail Folder" via WS on 9.7.1?

Hi,

I've tried a number of different ways, but so far I cannot seem to create an "E-mail Folder" Node in Content Server 9.7.1 using the DocumentManagement web service. Existing Nodes of the correct type, create in Content Server's UI, list the type as "GenericNode:751". However, when I try to use "GenericNode:751" as part of DocumentManagement.getNodeTemplate() I always get an exception. Similarly, when I try to create a new Node(), and manually set the type to "GenericNode:751", I also get and exception on the call to DocumentManagement.createNode().

Any suggestions on how I can create this specific Node type?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to create an Email Folder via the web services.

Is this something that can be done via WebServices in Content Server 10?

Hi Scott,

Email objects can be created using the Enterprise Library Web Services with Content Server 10.

Thanks,

This cannot be done with CWS in Content Server 10 either.

However, I think this might be possible using the Enterprise Library web services. Just not with CWS.

If you deploy your own module on the LL/CS already, you can add the functionality you're missing in the OOB WSs to your module and publish it via your own WS API.

If your solution does not need/include a custom module yet, this would be probably too much for you. (The product I am working on requires its own module already thus we could solve the problem of missing API by introducing our own one.)

So.... the only way to create an email folder using CS 10 and CWS would be to hack it into the database. Very nice

E-mail folders are not a SubType native to Content Server and Content Web Services.
For that reason, one can not expect to be able to create such a custom SubType using core functionality.
Hence the necessity for the Enterprise Library functionality to accomplish this task.

Hi Kyle

Is it still true with CS 10: "

I thought "enterpise library was gone with CS 10?

Enterprise Library isn’t gone.

For CS 10 SP2 Update 10 or higher please use EL 10.2.1 UPD3.
