How to create a Physical object by request?

Georgy Kochetov

Need to create a physical object by request.
I have only the name of the object, parent object and RM_Classification id, that completed on the client side using my form. So what else I need to post by request and what the request need to contain.
My code bellow is not working and crashing on "NodeCreateSubclassPre -physicalobjects/PHYSICALOBJECTS/PhysObj LLNodes/PhysicalItems" while it tries to execute MediaType info from database (here: "mtProperties = CAPI.Exec( LLConnect, "SELECT * FROM MediaTypes where MediaTypeID=:A1", \
                                                request.selectedMedia )").

My code:
Object LLnode = $LLIAPI.LLNodeSubsystem.GetItem($TypePhysicalItem_non_Container);
                  Dynamic parentNode = DAPI.GetNodeByID(.fprgCtx.dSession().fSession, 494489)
                  .res = LLnode.NodeAlloc(parentNode, 'newName'); //'newName' is just for test
                   if !.res.ok
                       return .res;
                   end
                   .res = LLnode.NodeCreate(.res.node, parentNode);
                   if !.res.ok
                    return .res;
                   end
                   retval.physItem = .res.node;

I don't know where I need to use my rm_classification id in order to classify my new physical object and everything else.

Thanks for your answers!

Off the top of my head, you will need the media type - not just its name but the ID of the DAPI node that represents it. You will also need the default location. Those two params are absolutely required. There is a Web Services call that can create the Physical object. The paper that describes that functionality is in the KC somewhere. I will post the link to this thread once I find it.
