Content Select CCE Filtering

Miguel_Marques

Hello,

I'm using the content select CCE to select the display view in a component. 

I want to get all the display views and then filter them.

In vcm 7.6 I used Reference Data in the  Widget menu and and extended the DisplayViewReferenceDataImpl class to have the filtering that I want.

In WEM 8.6 I've noticed the all the display views come from an ajax request to /contentapi/search/search.json?.What is the best way to filter the results? Should I use the Reference Data field again or can I extend the content api to create a new search. If so how do I tell the widget to use the new search query?

Thank you

Miguel

If you are using the Content Select CCE you don't need any IReferenceData. Just configure the widget to select instances of the Display View content type.

 

You need the DisplayViewReferenceDataImpl  if you select display views using the Data Select CCE. In such a case please consider that the V8 UI is able to "understand" the IReferenceData implementation configured with the widget, so you don't have to write any custom AJAX code

 

ciao

Mario
