Search Webservice WSDL

Hi,

We are wanting to make use of search services of Content Server Webservices. What WSDL needs to be imported so as to consume the web services?

We are trying to use Search Service of les-services using WSDL http://localhost:8080/les-services/services/SearchService?wsdl.

But for the Search method we are unable to successfully run the Soap Request.

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:api.ecm.opentext.com" xmlns:urn1="urn:SearchServices.service.livelink.opentext.com">

<soapenv:Header>

<urn:OTAuthentication>

<urn:AuthenticationToken></urn:AuthenticationToken>

</urn:OTAuthentication>

</soapenv:Header>

<soapenv:Body>

<urn1:Search>

<urn1:queries>

<urn1:DataCollectionSpec></urn1:DataCollectionSpec>

<urn1:FirstResultToRetrieve>1</urn1:FirstResultToRetrieve>

<urn1:NumResultsToRetrieve>10</urn1:NumResultsToRetrieve>

<urn1:QueryLanguage>Livelink Search API V1</urn1:QueryLanguage>

<urn1:ResultOrderSpec>???</urn1:ResultOrderSpec>

<urn1:ResultSetSpec>???</urn1:ResultSetSpec>

<urn1:ResultTransformationSpec>???</urn1:ResultTransformationSpec>

</urn1:queries>

</urn1:Search>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Need to know what parameters to put in the ??? marked tags.

How about trying your luck with Kyle's beautifully written sample?

I wonder how one could debug livelink if Fiddler, Wireshark and Softerra LDAP browser was not invented and not free

Thank you so much for reverting. I am getting this same error with use of the following request-

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:api.ecm.opentext.com" xmlns:urn1="urn:SearchServices.service.livelink.opentext.com">
   <soapenv:Header>
      <urn:OTAuthentication>
         
         <urn:AuthenticationToken>zdsxyWFaX83kHR6DjBbEiRI8ERCAvrE1m%2B4xtBV7dGo%3D</urn:AuthenticationToken>
      </urn:OTAuthentication>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <urn1:Search>
         
         <urn1:queries>
            
            <urn1:DataCollectionSpec>"dataCollections[0]"</urn1:DataCollectionSpec>
            <urn1:FirstResultToRetrieve>1</urn1:FirstResultToRetrieve>
            <urn1:NumResultsToRetrieve>10</urn1:NumResultsToRetrieve>
            
            <urn1:QueryLanguage>Livelink Search API V1</urn1:QueryLanguage>
            
            <urn1:ResultOrderSpec>"sortByRegion=OTCreatedBy"</urn1:ResultOrderSpec>
            
            <urn1:ResultSetSpec>"where1=" +"my document"</urn1:ResultSetSpec>
            
            <urn1:ResultTransformationSpec>"OTDataID", "OTName"</urn1:ResultTransformationSpec>
         </urn1:queries>

</urn1:Search>

</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

This was the error again-

<faultstring>The Slice you specified is inaccessible.</faultstring>

How will the use of slice help in searching the whole repository?

Steve Brezina

I'm guessing "dataCollections[0]" is being passed as the literal value of the DataCollectionSpec. Try "LES Enterprise" instead, for the Enterprise slice.

I tried with that as well I get the below mentioned error-

<faultstring>You have either not specified any search criterion at all, or one of your Livelink Query Language statements is incorrect. Edit the query by clicking an option in at least one list and/or correcting the statements that appear in the fields.</faultstring>

Steve Brezina

That error means that your request did not generate a defined search query. Try a ResultSetSpec value of where1=* to get started by searching for everything the slice you specify.

I will let you in a trick we all learned a while back .Lapi and CWS are basically working in a livelink like a user would work.So go to your livelink on a browser ui and try to go to the search page and execute something.If you hit advanced search you should be able to see the slices et al.Livelink search has to work period for any help regarding this.

See this outside link http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=3552

It is basically an introduction to the livelink search xml api.Official documentation exists for this but do try to understand what you are trying to do.

All the SOAP api is doing is formulating a search query correctly like a POST to a livelink search engine.Since it is all tightly integrated with livelink one sometimes forget they are actually a separate api .

Either your livelink sysadmin is an advanced person who has tweaked the livelink offering out of the box heavily so none of the OT examples work or he does not have search working in this livelink that is what I would think about this.
