Needing assistance in utilizing web services thru Javascript

I have an application writtern using javascript that contains the folder ids of the LiveLink folders used to store contracts. I need to be able to access that folder and extract any PDF's contained within and all the code need to be Javascript.

CWS may not be the best choice if you’re using Javascript.

We offer a REST API that is perfect for this sort of interaction.

Have a look athttp://developer.opentext.com for information on the available API.

There’s a quick start guide posted here:

You will need to use the REST API which is available in Version 10 Update 13 and above and CS10.5 I believe all versions.

authentication without OTDS is probably available in newer versions otherwise you are stuck at making OTDS work first.

This forum deals with mostly the SOAP kind so I googled if it was possible and found this

If you use Fiddler and call a livelink webservice you can see the soap exchange happening so granted it may be possible in html/javascript but you would have to figure out each call and format it properly

Well, if I called the wrongnumber, why did you answer the phone?
