GetNodeByPath not working for the Business Workspace

Pablo_Lopez

Hi, I'm just reposting a old unanswered question from Alexandra which I came across and have the exactly the same issue. 

 

I am developping  an add-on for Office and I need to get the Indentifier of the current Document.

The file path I get for the Document is

http://localhost:3579/dev/Enterprise/Folder01/Folder02/Folder03/document.docx

In order to get the node, I am using the method GetNodeByPath from the Document Management web service.

I've noticed and tested that if any of the parent folders is a Business workspace (subtype 848) then the method GetNodeByPath returns null for anything within.

 

fDocManService.GetNodeByPath(ref fDocManAuth, 2000, {"Folder01", "Folder02", "Folder03", "document.docx"} );

if Folder02 is Business Workspace, then null is returned instead. Otherwise, it works as expected.

Is there a workaround for this?"

 

Thanks,

Pablo

It appears subtype=848 is a customized node type perhaps from one of your customized module, that's maybe the reason for the failure. DocMan service provides multiple way to retrieve the information for a given node, you can get by ID or get by Name or search etc. Not sure why you have to stick with this method. If for whatever the reason you need to use this method, perhaps you can submit a ticket with OT support, they can review/confirm if this is the limitation of the web service or unsupported feature, then you can submit a feature request or engage a service to expand this web method.-----Original Message-----From: eLink Entry: Content Web Services Forum [mailto:otdncontentwebservices971forum@elinkkc.opentext.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2013 7:16 AMTo: eLink RecipientSubject: GetNodeByPath not working for the Business WorkspaceGetNodeByPath not working for the Business WorkspacePosted by Lopez, Pablo On 02-19-2013 07:09 Hi, I'm just reposting a old unanswered question from Alexandra which I came across and have the exactly the same issue.
