CWS - error locating node after creation

yaronlu

Hi,

I am using CWS to upload files to content server.
if the destination folder does not exist, I create it and put the file in it.

The problem occures when I am uploading multiple files.

The first one works as expected. when the following file is uploaded, the application searches, if its destination node exist.

 It doesnt find it (i guess due to the delay in adding it to the search index), and also try to create the node.

the CS returns an error of duplicate node creation.

I tried searching with "search api" but the problem persist.

How can i make sure the node was created before i try to search it?

 

Thanks

Hi Yaron,

How are you checking for nodes in the destination location?

If you're using search, in any way, I'd perhaps suggest you do something a little different.

You don't want to be held up by the index needing an update. You'll want your application to immediately be aware of contents in a given location, in my mind.

Instead, do something like ListNodes() or GetNodesInContainer() to get a listing of objects for a given folder.

If you're checking for, and creating the folder if it wasn't there in the first place, you should already have the NodeID of the folder to pass in as the parent location, since when we create something successfully, the response will contain the ID of the created item (always, as far as I know).

Thanks,
