Querying LSCS in a workflow - set security?

Using Teamsite 7.4

Am able to run a query like

http://server:8080/lscs/v1/document$*?q=TeamSite/Templating/DCR/Type:MyItem&project=myproject&start=0&max=100

in the browser and get results (also same query in debug panel works).

However if I try to construct and run the same query in a java external from a workflow the query returns 0 results.

Looking in the idol/logs/query.log I can see that the difference in the query is that there is a value in the working query set "securityInfo"

How can I find and set the corresponding value for the query in my java code? I have access to the workflow client & context object & the user is logged into teamsite when running the job so I would assume the info is available?

(Incidentally we had to make a similar change for using an lscs query in teamsite preview setting an IWAUTH value on the header.)

Are you querying LSCS/AT or LSCS/RT ?

For LSCS/AT (the TS server's LSCS instance), the user must have an active TS session to use LSCS.

I noticed that you received data when you were logged into TS and nothing when you logged out.

That may be the issue,

Specifically, it depends on how you're calling the LSCS service in your external.

If you're using the API in lscsclient.jar, you have to do lscsclient.setSessionString(csclient.getContext().getSessionString());

If you're calling LSCS over some http client, then you have to add an IWAUTH cookie with value from csclient.getContext().getSessionString();

Note that referencing any cssdk classes on your runtime will cause a linking error. There's different ways of solving this issue though.

Thanks both - its LSCS/AT but the user will be logged in to kick off the workflow in the first instance so should be able to add it as described with the IWAUTH field.
