Hi All,

I am getting the error E_CONTENT_SOURCE_IS_MANDATORY when we try to create an object instance using the Documentum xCP web application. Application is developed using the xCP Designer version 23.2. Help to find the reason for the error and resolve it.

Use a stateless process to create the content object first, and then initiated the workflow after this, this will initiate the workflow without issues and there will be no errors.

Another way to achieve this is to create a content,using "Default Import Action Flow"
or "Default Create Document Action Flow" as per your business requirement, these are action flows. You can create a custom action flow to import a document from desktop or create a document from a template.
a content type requires "CONTENT" (dmr_content) and hence the error is seen.
