LscsQuery getDocumentById() in TS 7.1 w LS

Binettoid

Hi all,
I was quite happily using getDocumentByPath() for a while, until I decided to integrate something else by referencinig the asset Id. I tried changing over to passing Ids instead of paths and tried to use getDocumentById. Lo and behold it does not find any assets. I've tried passing it a bona-fide asset Id.
I get a "no such resource" error. The method is obscured as it is calling Client.getDocumentById()
Anyone else ever come across this? IS there a way to use this method correctly?

Ok I worked around this by adding a method that performs a query based on Id. It is very frustrating to have a method called getDocumentById(), that in fact does not do what it says on the tin.
It causes confusion and delay, as Sir Topham Hatt the fat controller would say.
Getting kinda bored of answering my own posts on here, too.
