Is it possible to update MIME Type of a document from application/octet-stream to text/plain using CWS API?

Hi Vijhay,

Strictly speaking, MIME Types are associated withversions of documents, not with documents themselves. Presumably though you want to change the MIME Type of the current version of a document.

To do this you'd use documentManagement'sgetVersion, passing the document's ID and version number. (Tip: passing 0 as the version number returns the current version.) After changing the MIME Type you'll callupdateVersion. In fact the documentation for updateVersion says "Update a version (Comment and MimeType are the only modifiable properties)".

Hope this helps,
