4 Core Content Server Services

The following sections describe the core services available for the Oracle WebCenter Content Server (Content Server) system. The services are divided according to Service Class.

4.1 About Core Content Server Services

Information about what is an Oracle WebCenter Content (WebCenter Content) service and how services can be used is provided in Section 2, "Using Services." Information about basic services structure, attributes, actions, and a service example is provided in Section 3, "Customizing Services." You should be familiar with this information before customizing current services or creating new services

The locations for specific core Content Server services are listed within each individual service.

Note:

The most commonly used services have more extensive descriptions.

Important:

All services have at least one required parameter. The IdcService parameter takes the name of the service as its argument. If other parameters are required, they are noted in the description of the service.

4.2 General Services (Core Content Server)

General services are used throughout the Content Server system and are often not tied to a specific functionality. Frequently used services are marked with an asterisk (*) in the following list.

This section describes these services:

4.2.1 ADD_DOC_ACCOUNT

Service used to create a new account. The most likely error is an account name that is not unique.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dDocAccount: The security account for the content item.

Example

IdcService=ADD_DOC_COLLECTION
dDocAccount=newaccount

4.2.2 ADD_DOCEXTENSION

Service that adds a file extension to an existing file. The most likely error is when a matching file with that extension already exists in the system.

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dExtension: The file extension such as hcsf, doc, txt.

  • dFormat: The formatting process used to create the web-viewable version of the content. For example, application/hcsf or application/doc.

Example

IdcService=ADD_DOCEXTENSION
dExtension=doc
dFormat=application/doc

4.2.3 ADD_DOCFORMAT

Service that creates a new file format. The most likely error is when the file format already exists in the system.

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dFormat: The formatting process used to create the web-viewable version of the content. For example, application/hcsf or application/doc.

  • dConversion: The conversion algorithm is determined by the parameter dConversion.

If the conversion type is not Passthru or NoConversion (default value) and the content is not web-viewable or has a publish state, the content gets added to the queue to get converted. Otherwise, the server looks for the web-viewable (if applicable) and the vault file and updates the processing state to say that the file has already been converted.

If the file mime-type is application/FDF, the server sets the conversion to exchange-fdf.

  • dDescription: The file format description.

The most likely error is a table name that does not exist.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • tableName: The name of table to export.

Example

  • IdcCommand command file format:

    IdcService=GET_TABLE

Action=prepareRedirect
Page=HOME_PAGE

4.2.31 MERGE_TABLE

Service that merges a result set with an existing database table. All errors are logged to the Content Server log.

Important:

By default, this service is not error tolerant and does not execute the merge in a transaction. Consequently, if the isErrorTolerant or isTransactional optional parameters are not set to true and if the service encounters an error, it terminates where the error occurred and does not roll back the already updated and inserted rows. In this situation, if you do not specify constraints and rerun the merge table, the merge fails in Microsoft SQL Server and Content Server due to constraint violations.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • tableName: The name of the database table to merge into. The result set must have the same name as this table.

    Important:

    The ResultSet definition for the table containing the rows to insert or update must also be specified.

Optional Service Parameters

  • constraintKeys: Specifies a comma-delimited list of column names used as unique identifiers. The service initially does a look up with these constraints. If the row is found, the service does an update. Otherwise, a new row is inserted.

If this parameter is not defined, the service attempts to insert the rows.

  • isDeleteTable: If true, the service deletes the table before attempting the merge. The delete is performed in a transaction with the merge, if isTransactional is true. By default, this value is false.

  • isErrorTolerant: If true, does not terminate when errors are encountered during the merge. By default, this value is false.

  • isTransactional: If true, the merge is performed in a transaction. If an error occurs during the merge and isErrorTolerant is false, the merge terminates and rolls back all the changes. By default, this value is false.

Example

  • IdcCommand command file format:

    # Merge new entries into the Alias table
    IdcService=MERGE_TABLE
    tableName=Alias
    constraintKeys=dAlias
    
    # Rows to be updated or inserted
    @ResultSet Alias
    2
    dAlias
    dAliasDescription
    MyAlias
    Just a test alias
    @end
    <<EOD>>
    
    # Delete the alias table and insert new rows, do a rollback if something fails.
    IdcService=MERGE_TABLE
    tableName=Alias
    isTransactional=true
    isDeleteTable=true
    
    # Rows to be updated or inserted
    @ResultSet Alias
    2
    dAlias
    dAliasDescription
    MyAlias
    Just a test alias
    @end
    <<EOD>>
    
  • HDA format (Example 1):

    @Properties LocalData
    IdcService=MERGE_TABLE
    tableName=Alias
    constraintKeys=dAlias
    @end
    @ResultSet Alias
    2
    dAlias
    dAliasDescription
    MyAlias
    Just a test alias
    @end
    
  • HDA format defining a table name and ResultSet and inserting a new row into the database (inserts new row into Users table):

    @Properties LocalData
    IdcService=MERGE_TABLE
    tableName=Users
    @end
    @ResultSet Users
    2
    dName
    dUserAuthType
    user15
    LOCAL
    @end
    

4.2.32 PING_SERVER

Service that evaluates if a connection to the Content Server instance exists and returns status information. It also forces users to log in if they are not already logged in.

Tip:

Execute a PING_SERVER request before calling other services to ensure that there is a connection to the Content Server instance and that you are logged in as a user authorized to execute commands.

Access Level: N/A (0)

This section describes these services:

4.3.1 ASSIGN_DOCINFO_FORM

Service that retrieves the DOCINFO_FORM and assigns it to content.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.2 CACHE_CHECKIN_NEW

Service used with preview. When a user performs a preview during a checkin the information is cached on the server side. This service is modeled after the non-cache version and uses the same parameters as CHECKIN_NEW.

To disallow the check in of empty files, set the following: ValidatePrimaryFileNotEmpty=1

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.3 CACHE_CHECKIN_SEL

Service used with preview. When a user performs a preview during a checkin the information is cached on the server side. This service is modeled after the non-cache version and uses the same parameters as CHECKIN_SEL.

To disallow the check in of empty files, set the following: ValidatePrimaryFileNotEmpty=1

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.4 CACHE_SUBMIT_HTML_FORM

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.5 CACHE_WORKFLOW_CHECKIN

Service used with preview. When a user performs a preview during a checkin the information is cached on the server side. This service is modeled after the non-cache version and uses the same parameters as WORKFLOW_CHECKIN.

To have the service return an error if the content item file is empty, use the configuration setting: ValidatePrimaryFileNotEmpty=1.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.6 CHECKIN_ARCHIVE_NO_NOTIFY

A general checkin service used by client applications. It is generally used when the client application knows it will be checking in a large number of files and it does not want the indexer to be initiated by the check-in activity.

NO_NOTIFY indicates that this service does not notify the Content Server subjects that are normally notified during a checkin. This service suppresses the Released Documents subject, which starts the indexer.

The user of this service should notify the indexer subject to proceed to do work by calling the NOTIFY_INDEXER service.

This service is not used by the archiver.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

For additional parameters, see CHECKIN_ARCHIVE.

Optional Service Parameters

For additional parameters, see CHECKIN_ARCHIVE.

Example

IdcService=CHECKIN_ARCHIVE_NO_NOTIFY
Action=insert
dDocAuthor=user1
dDocName=test
dDocTitle=new content
dSecurityGroup=Public
primaryFile=c:/test.txt
doFileCopy=true

4.3.7 CHECKIN_BYNAME

Service that checks in a content item revision based on the content item name or Content ID.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

A user must have Admin permission to the content item's security settings to change the security group (dSecurityGroup), account (dDocAccount), or author (dDocAuthor).

  • If the content item uses entity security, the user must have at least Write permission granted by the entities, unless the user has Admin rights to the security group being assigned to the document.

  • If the content item is in a workflow, the user must be a reviewer/contributor for the current step.

  • If metafile generation is enabled (by setting the AllowPrimaryMetaFile or AllowAlternateMetaFile environment variables, or both) and the metafile generation variables (createPrimaryMetaFile and createAlternateMetaFile) are true, a real file cannot be associated with the current content item. Only one metafile can be associated with a content item. If createPrimaryMetaFile is true, createAlternateMetaFile must be false and vice-versa.

  • The most likely error is a revision failing to insert or when the refinery was not successfully initiated.

    Important:

    Either the content item name or the content item revision ID must be specified.

To disallow the check in of empty files, set the following: ValidatePrimaryFileNotEmpty=1

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dDocName: The Content ID for the content item.

    • If Content ID auto generation is enabled, this parameter is not required. If dDocName is defined, it overrides the auto generated Content ID.

    • The Content ID cannot contain spaces or invalid characters ;/ \?:@&=+"#%<>*~|[ ].

  • dDocAuthor: The content item author (contributor).

  • dDocTitle: The content item title.

  • dDocType: The content item type.

  • dSecurityGroup: The security group such as Public or Secure.

  • dDocAccount: The account for the content item. Required only if accounts are enabled.

  • primaryFile: The absolute path to the location of the file as seen from the server. Use the slash as the file separator.

    A primary file must be specified unless checking in metadata only. If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

    • If a primary file is not specified, you can use a metafile in its place. Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist).

    • If both a primary and alternate file is specified, their extensions must be different.

    • doFileCopy: 1 (true): The file is not deleted from the hard drive after checkin.

    • 0 (false): The file is removed from the hard drive after checkin.

  • Required custom fields: Custom metadata fields that are required must also be specified.

Optional Service Parameters

  • dID: The generated content item revision ID.

  • alternateFile: The alternate file for conversion.

  • Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist.)

    If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

  • AutoNumberPrefix: This is a configuration entry but can be specified as a parameter. The auto prefix script is evaluated after the revision class ID is generated and before metadata validation.

  • createAlternateMetaFile: To enable alternate metafile generation, the AllowAlternateMetaFile environment value must be true and the parameter createAlternateMetaFile must be true.

  • createPrimaryMetaFile: To enable primary metafile generation, the AllowPrimaryMetaFile environment value must be true and the parameter createPrimaryMetaFile must be true.

  • dConversion: The conversion algorithm is determined by this parameter.

If the conversion type is not Passthru or NoConversion (default value) and the content is not web-viewable or has a publish state, the content gets added to the queue to get converted. Otherwise, the server looks for the web-viewable (if applicable) and the vault file and updates the processing state to say that the file has already been converted.

If the file mime-type is application/FDF, the server sets the conversion to exchange-fdf.

  • dCreateDate: The date the content item was created. By default, this is the current date.

  • dExtension: The file extension such as hcsf, doc, txt.

  • dFormat: The formatting process used to create the web-viewable version of the content. For example, application/hcsf or application/doc.

  • dInDate: The content release date. The date the content item is to be released to the Web. By default, this is the current date.

If the content release date (dInDate) is not specified, the creation date (dCreateDate) is used. This value is auto generated if it is not supplied.

  • dOutDate: The content expiration date. By default, this is blank and does not specify an expiration date.

If the content expiration date (dOutDate) is not entered, the value remains empty. This is a valid state.

  • dPublishState: The publish state. If the content item exists in the system dPublishState must be empty.

  • dReleaseState: The release state (used to indicate the Web state of the revision).

  • dRevClassID: The revision class ID.

  • dRevLabel: The revision label for the content item. If set, the label is used to locate the specified revision.

  • dWfType: The workflow type such as Basic or Criteria.

  • IsAutoNumber: This is a configuration entry but can be specified as a parameter. If the configuration variable IsAutoNumber is set to true, the Content ID (dDocName) is generated by concatenating the auto prefix with the revision class ID (dRevClassID, the counter of uniquely differentiated content items), pre-filled with leading zeroes to be six digits long. Auto numbering is not performed if the Content ID (dDocName) is already specified.

  • IsEditRev: If set to true, this entry checks if the content revision is in a workflow and enables editing.

  • IsWorkflowInfo: This is a configuration entry but can be specified as a parameter. If set to true, this entry checks for workflow information and checks allowable actions for the workflow steps.

  • webViewableFile: If a content item has a web-viewable file associated with it, the conversion format is the format of the web-viewable file (the parameter webViewableFile:format) and the extension is the web-viewable file's extension (the parameter dWebExtension). Otherwise, the extension and file format are determined by the parameters dExtension and dFormat, respectively. The user can override the file format and extension by setting these additional parameters.

  • Optional custom fields: Custom metadata fields that are not required can also be specified.

Example

IdcService=CHECKIN_BYNAME
dDocName=test1000
dSecurityGroup=public
dDocAuthor=sysadmin
dDocType=ADENG

4.3.10 CHECKIN_NEW

Service that checks in a new content item. This service calls the CHECKIN_NEW_SUB subservice.

Access Level: Write (2)

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

  • If you attempt to set the author (dDocAuthor) to someone other than the currently logged in user, you must have Admin permission to the security attributes being assigned to the document.

  • If the content uses entity security, the user must have at least Write permission granted by the entities, unless the user has Admin rights to the security group being assigned to the document.

  • If metafile generation is enabled (by setting the AllowPrimaryMetaFile or AllowAlternateMetaFile environment variables, or both) and the metafile generation variables (createPrimaryMetaFile and createAlternateMetaFile) are true, a real file cannot be associated with the current content item. Only one metafile can be associated with a content item: if createPrimaryMetaFile is true, createAlternateMetaFile must be false and vice-versa.

  • The most likely error is when the content item was not properly defined.

  • This service executes the subservice CHECKIN_NEW_SUB. This subservice checks in a new content item revision.

  • A primary file is required. If you do not want to check in a primary file and want to check in only metadata, an additional parameter must be included and a configuration entry added in the Oracle WebCenter Content Server system.

  • To disallow the checkin of empty files, set the following: ValidatePrimaryFileNotEmpty=1

Required additional parameter (metadata checkin):

createPrimaryMetaFile=true

Required Content Server configuration entry (metadata checkin):

AllowPrimaryMetaFile=true

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dDocName: The Content ID for the content item.

    • If Content ID auto generation is enabled, this parameter is not required. If dDocName is defined, it overrides the auto generated Content ID.

    • The Content ID cannot contain spaces or invalid characters ;/ \?:@&=+"#%<>*~|[ ].

  • dDocAuthor: The content item author (contributor).

  • dDocTitle: The content item title.

  • dDocType: The content item Type.

  • dSecurityGroup: The security group such as Public or Secure.

  • dDocAccount: The account for the content item. Required only if accounts are enabled.

  • primaryFile: The absolute path to the location of the file as seen from the server. Use the slash as the file separator.

    A primary file must be specified unless checking in metadata only. If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

    • If a primary file is not specified, you can use a metafile in its place. Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist).

    • If both a primary and alternate file is specified, their extensions must be different.

    • Required custom fields: Custom metadata fields that are required must also be specified.

Optional Service Parameters

  • alternateFile: The alternate file for conversion.

    • Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist.)

    • If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

  • AutoNumberPrefix: This is a configuration entry but can be specified as a parameter. The auto prefix script is evaluated after the revision class ID is generated and before metadata validation.

  • createAlternateMetaFile: To enable alternate metafile generation, the AllowAlternateMetaFile environment value must be set to true and the parameter createAlternateMetaFile must be set to true.

  • createPrimaryMetaFile: To enable primary metafile generation, the AllowPrimaryMetaFile environment value must be true and the parameter createPrimaryMetaFile must be set to true.

  • DirectReleaseNewCheckinDoc: Directs content items being checked in to bypass Inbound Refinery, workflow, and indexing. The default is 0. To enable, set DirectReleaseNewCheckinDoc=1.

    This parameter can be used to support a high ingestion rate when transferring content items from an external repository into Content Server storage. Because this setting increases the speed of content checkin, it increases the number of check-ins that Content Server can support at a time. This capability is highly desirable in applications (for example, scanning applications) where large numbers of items are expected to be checked in at once.

    Before you enable this setting, take into account the following important considerations.

    • A content item checked in this way can only be found by searching with DATABASE.METADATA. However, other content items can still go through regular checkin and be FULLTEXT indexed.

    • A rebuild of the index does not cause content checked in with this parameter to go through indexing.

    • Content modification (updating or checking in a new revision) causes indexing to occur on a document checked in with this parameter.

  • dConversion: The conversion algorithm is determined by this parameter.

    If the conversion type is not Passthru or NoConversion (default value) and the content is not web-viewable or has a publish state, the content gets added to the queue to get converted. Otherwise, the server looks for the web-viewable (if applicable) and the vault file and updates the processing state to say that the file has already been converted.

    If the file mime-type is application/FDF, the server sets the conversion to exchange-fdf.

  • dCreateDate: The date the content item was created. By default, this is the current date.

  • dFormat: The formatting process used to create the web-viewable version of the content item. For example, application/hcsf or application/doc.

  • dInDate: The release date. By default, this is the current date. If the content release date (dInDate) is not specified, the creation date (dCreateDate) is used. This value is auto generated if it is not supplied.

  • dOutDate: The expiration date. By default, this is blank and does not specify an expiration date. If the content expiration date (dOutDate) is not entered, the value remains empty. This is a valid state.

  • dRendition: Used to specify an additional rendition of the content item.

  • dRevClassID: The revision class ID.

  • dRevisionLabel: The revision label for the content item. If set, the label is used to locate the specified revision.

  • IsAutoNumber: This is a configuration entry but can be specified as a parameter. If the configuration variable IsAutoNumber is set to true, the Content ID (dDocName) is generated by concatenating the auto prefix with the revision class ID (dRevClassID, the counter of uniquely differentiated content items), pre-filled with leading zeroes to be six digits long. Auto numbering is not performed if the Content ID (dDocName) is already specified.

  • webViewableFile: If a content item has a web-viewable file associated with it, the conversion format is the format of the web-viewable file (the parameter webViewableFile:format) and the extension is the web-viewable file's extension (the parameter dWebExtension). Otherwise, the extension and file format are determined by the parameters dExtension and dFormat, respectively. The user can override the file format and extension by setting these additional parameters.

  • Optional custom fields: Custom metadata fields that are not required can also be specified.

4.3.17 CHECKIN_UNIVERSAL

Service that performs an Content Server controlled checkin.

Access Level: Write (2)

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

  • This service sends the check-in request to one of the following subservices, which are the same subservices called during checkin through the browser or Repository Manager application. (These subservices are not called during a Batch Loader or Archive import.)

    • CHECKIN_NEW_SUB - If the content item does not exist in the server. This subservice validates the check-in data and determines if this content item belongs to a criteria workflow.

    • CHECKIN_SEL_SUB - If the content item exists on the system, the content item is checked out, and the content item is not in a workflow.

    • WORKFLOW_CHECKIN_SUB - If the content item exists and is in a workflow.

  • This service checks security to determine if the user has sufficient permission to check in the content item.

  • Determines if the content item is new or already exists in the system by querying the database using the Content ID (dDocName) as the key.

  • If the content item exists in the system, the publish state (dPublishState) must be empty.

  • If the item exists and is checked out, a new revision is checked in.

  • The most likely errors are mismatched parameters or when the content item was not successfully checked in.

    Note:

    All paths use the slash (/) as the file separator. This is because the backslash (\) is an escape character. For example, primaryFile=d:/temp/myfile.txt.

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dDocName: The Content ID for the content item.

    • If Content ID auto generation is enabled, this parameter is not required.

    • If dDocName is specified and exists in the Content Server system, a revision is checked in. If dDocName is specified and does not exist in the Content Server system, a new content item is checked in.

    • The Content ID cannot contain spaces or invalid characters ;/ \?:@&=+"#%<>*~|[ ].

  • dDocAuthor: The content item author (contributor).

  • dDocTitle: The content item title.

  • dDocType: The content item type.

  • dSecurityGroup: The security group such as Public or Secure.

  • dDocAccount: The account for the content item. Required only if accounts are enabled.

  • primaryFile: The absolute path to the location of the file as seen from the server. Use the slash as the file separator. A primary file must be specified unless checking in metadata only. If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

    • If a primary file is not specified, you can use a metafile in its place. Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist).

    • If both a primary and alternate file is specified, their extensions must be different.

    • doFileCopy: 1 (true): The file is not deleted from the hard drive after checkin. 0 (false): The file is removed from the hard drive after checkin.

  • Required custom fields: Custom metadata fields that are required must also be specified.

  • Optional Service Parameters

  • alternateFile: The alternate file for conversion.

  • Only one metafile can exist for each content item (a primary AND alternate meta file cannot coexist.)

    • If an alternate file is specified with the primary file, the content refinery converts the alternate file. Otherwise, the primary file is converted.

  • dCreateDate: The date the content item was created. By default, this is the current date.

  • dInDate: The content release date. The date the content item is to be released to the Web. By default, this is the current date. If the content release date (dInDate) is not specified, the creation date (dCreateDate) is used. This value is auto generated if it is not supplied.

  • dOutDate: The content expiration date. By default, this is blank and does not specify an expiration date. If the content expiration date (dOutDate) is not entered, the value remains empty. This is a valid state.

  • dRevLabel: The revision label for the content item. If set, the label is used to locate the specified revision. If a revision label (dRevLabel) is specified, this service checks if the content revision exists in the system; an exception is thrown if it exists.

  • isFinished: Set to true (1) if this is a workflow checkin and you have finished editing it.

  • For additional information, see WORKFLOW_CHECKIN.

    Note:

    Do not confuse the Content ID (dDocName) with the internal content item revision identifier (dID). The dID is a generated reference to a specific rendition of a content item.

Results

  • Local Data:

    • dConversion: If refinery-processed, contains information about what conversion occurred.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Important:

Either the content item name (dDocName) must be specified or a Content ID (dDocName) with the RevisionSelectionMethod parameter must be specified.

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dDocName: The content item name.

Optional Service Parameters

  • RevisionSelectionMethod: Can be set to Latest to retrieve the most recent version, or LatestReleased to retrieve the most recently released version, or Specific (if set to Specific, a dID must be provided). If set to Specific, dID can be used instead of dDocName to point to a specific revision.

Results

  • Result Sets:

    • DOC_INFO (all fields from Revisions and DocMeta for the specified revision)

4.3.37 DOC_INFO_LATESTRELEASE

Service that retrieves information only for the latest revision of a released content item. If the content item has no released revision, the service returns a StatusCode of -1, with a corresponding StatusMessage value. It only returns the DOC_INFO result set (no revision, workflow, or subscription information). Because it does not have a template it returns only raw data.

The most likely errors are when the content item no longer exists in the system or when the user does not have the security level to perform this action.

Access Level: Read, Scriptable (33)

Queries Executed: QlatestReleasedIDByName, QdocInfo

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

It returns revision information as a simple listing of rows from the Revisions table rather than a specific selection of fields from the Documents and Revisions table. These differences make this service a less expensive operation than the standard DOC_INFO service.

Because it does not have a template it returns only raw data.

Access Level: Read, Scriptable (33)

Queries Executed: QdocInfo, QdocName

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

4.3.48 GET_EXPIRED

Service used to retrieve a list of expiring and expired items. The optional isExpiredQuery parameter, when set to true, causes the service to list only items that have already expired.

Without this parameter, the list also contains items that are scheduled to expire within the range of dates specified by endDate and startDate. This may include items that have already expired if the start date is earlier than the current system time.

Access Level: Read, Write, Global (18)

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Optional Service Parameters

  • endDate: Items expiring before this date are displayed.

  • isExpiredQuery: Setting this parameter to 1 (true) causes searching for only expired items. If set to true and the end date is unspecified, the current system time is used as a default end date. This lists content that has already expired unless constrained by a specific start date.

  • If set to 0 (false) and the start date is empty, the current system time is used as a default start date. This lists content items that expire in the future, constrained by a specified end date.

In all other situations, empty start or end dates are treated as empty, and no corresponding constraint is imposed upon the query.

4.6.3 GET_FILE

Service that returns a specific rendition of a content item revision to a browser. A copy of the file is retrieved without performing a checkout.

  • Given a dID or a dDocName and a RevisionSelectionMethod parameter, the service determines the file name of a particular rendition of the revision and returns that file to the client.

  • The most likely errors are some form of mismatched parameters or a request for a revision or rendition that does not exist.

    Note:

    It is recommended that dDocName be included in all requests for content items where the requester knows the dDocName. Error messages in the Content Server instance assume that it is present, as do other features such as forms.

Access Level: Read, Scriptable (33)

Queries Executed:

  • QdocInfo

  • QlatestIdByName

  • QlatestReleasedIDByName

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

Note:

Either the content item revision ID (dID) must be specified or a Content ID (dDocName) along with a RevisionSelectionMethod parameter must be defined.
  • dID: The generated content item revision ID.

    • If dID is not specified, dDocName and RevisionSelectionMethod must specified.

    • A rendition of the revision of the content item with this ID is returned, if it exists, and the RevisionSelectionMethod parameter does not exist or has the value Specific.

  • dDocName: The Content ID for the content item.

    • If dDocName is not present, dID must be present and RevisionSelectionMethod must not be present.

    • If RevisionSelectionMethod is present, a rendition of a revision of the content item with this name is returned, if it exists. If RevisionSelectionMethod is not present, dDocName is used in error messages.

    • Optional Service Parameters

  • allowInterrupt: If set to 1 (true), this suppresses an error if the user cancels the file download.

  • RevisionSelectionMethod: The revision selection method.

    • If present, dDocName must be present. The value of this variable is the method used to compute a dID from the specified dDocName. Its value can be Specific, Latest, or LatestReleased.

    • If the value is Specific, the dDocName is ignored, and dID is required and is used to get a rendition. If the value is Latest, the latest revision of the content item is used to compute the dID. If the value is LatestReleased, the latest released revision of the content item is used to compute the dID.

  • Rendition: The content item rendition. This parameter specifies the rendition of the content item and can be set to Primary, Web, or Alternate. If Rendition is not present, it defaults to Primary.

    • If the value is Primary, the primary rendition of the selected revision is returned.

    • If the value is Web, the web-viewable rendition of the selected revision is returned.

    • If the value is Alternate, the alternate rendition of the selected revision is returned.

  • IsXml: When set to true or 1, returns the XML data island which is present in some HCSP, HCST, and HCSF pages. It returns the data island that is wrappered inside the std_html_form_xml_wrapper include, which can be modified to pass additional information if desired.

4.14 User Services (Core Content Server)

User Services assist in managing user-related activities, such as adding accounts, aliases, and roles. Frequently used services are marked with an asterisk (*) in the following list.

The following services are described in this section:

4.14.1 ADD_ALIAS

Used to create a new alias. The most likely errors are mismatched parameters or when a user or alias already exists in the system.

If you add an alias using the User Admin applet, you must add at least one user. However, you do not need to add a user using IdcCommand or IdcCommandX. To add users using IdcCommand or IdcCommandX, the optional parameter AliasUsersString must be included.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dAlias: The alias name.

  • dAliasDescription: The alias description.

Optional Service Parameters

  • AliasUsersString: The alias or user. To add multiple users:

    • In HDA format: Use the \n escape sequence between each user name when using HDA format, as in this example:

    • AliasUsersString=sysadmin\nuser1

    • When using SOAP format, put the unencoded line feed directly into the XML or encode the line feed as (&#10;).

Example

  • To create an alias and add a user the required parameters are:

    IdcService=ADD_ALIAS
    dAlias=my_alias
    dAliasDescription=admin users
    AliasUsersString=sysadmin
    
  • In HDA format, adding a user with the AliasUsersString parameter:

    @Properties LocalData
    IdcService=ADD_ALIAS
    dAlias=my_alias
    dAliasDescription=admin users
    AliasUsersString=sysadmin
    @end
    
  • In HDA format, adding a user with the AliasUserMap and Alias result sets:

    @Properties LocalData
    IdcService=ADD_ALIAS
    changedSubjects=aliases,1008291537850
    dAliasDescription=Test Alias
    refreshSubjects=
    blFieldTypes=StatusMessage message
    blDateFormat=M/d{/yy} {h:mm[:ss] {aa}[zzz]}!tAmerica/Chicago!mAM,PM
    loadedUserAttributes=1
    dUser=sysadmin

4.14.2 ADD_GROUP

Service that creates a new security group. The most likely error is when the security group name is not unique.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dGroupName: The security group name.

  • dDescription: The security group description.

  • dPrivilege: The permission setting.

    If this value is set to 0, only the admin role has RWDA permission on the security group; no other roles are able to access the security group. If the value is set to 15, all roles get RWDA permission on the security group. For more information about numbering of permissions, see Oracle WebCenter Content System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.

Example

IdcService=ADD_GROUP
dGroupName=NEW_GROUP
dPrivilege=15
dDescription=admin privileges

4.14.3 ADD_ROLE

Service that creates a new role. A role is a set of permissions (Read, Write, Delete, Admin) for each security group.

The service adds a row in the RoleDefinition table for every existing security group. The most likely error is when the role name is not unique.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dRoleName: The role name.

  • dPrivilege: The permission setting.

    If this value is set to 0, only the admin role has RWDA permission on the security group. No other roles are able to access the security group. If the value is set to 15, all roles get RWDA permission on the security group. For more information about numbering of permissions, see Oracle WebCenter Content System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.

Example

IdcService=ADD_ROLE
dRoleName=specialuser
dPrivilege=15

4.14.4 ADD_USER

Service used to create a new user. The most likely error is when the user name is not unique.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • dName: The user name.

  • dUserAuthType: The user authorization type. This value must be set to either Local or Global.

Optional Service Parameters

  • dFullName: The full name of the user.

  • dPassword: The password for the user.

  • dEmail: The email address for the user.

Optional Attribute Information

Optional attribute information is specified in a result set that contains the user's attribute information and references the roles the user belongs to and the accounts the user has access to. Attribute information consists of a list of three comma-delimited strings. The first string indicates the type of attribute, the second the name of the attribute, and the third is the access number for accounts or default entry for role.

Important:

The user attribute information is not predefined. By default, a new user belongs to no roles or accounts, and becomes a guest in the system.
  • Attribute Type: When defining a role, the first string specifies that this is a role attribute, the second string is the name of the role, and the third is the default entry of 15.

    When defining an account, the first string specifies that this is an account attribute, the second string is the name of the account, and the third is the access level.

    • For a role attribute, the information is in the form:

    • role,contributor,15

    • For an account attribute, the information is in the form:

    • account,books,1

  • Attribute Name: A user can belong to multiple roles and accounts, so there can be multiple role and account information strings separated by commas in the attribute information column. If the user is to have the admin role, define the user attribute information as follows:

    @ResultSet UserAttribInfo
    2
    dUserName
    AttributeInfo
    jsmith
    role,contributor,15
    @end
    

    If the user is to belong to both the contributor and editor roles and have Read permission on the books account, define the user attribute information as:

    @ResultSet UserAttribInfo
    2
    dUserName
    AttributeInfo
    jsmith
    role,contributor,15,role,editor,15,account,books,1
    @end
    
  • Access Number: These access numbers can be assigned to the user.

    • 1: Read only

    • 3: Read and write

    • 7: Read, write, delete

    • 15: Administrative permissions

Example

  • IdcCommand command file format:

    IdcService=ADD_USER
    dName=specialuser
    dUserAuthType=LOCAL
    
  • HDA format with optional parameters:

    @Properties LocalData
    IdcService=ADD_USER
    dName=jsmith
    dUserAuthType=LOCAL
    dFullName=Jennifer Smith
    dPassword=password
    dEmail=jsmith@example.com
    @end
    @ResultSet UserAttribInfo
    2
    dUserName
    AttributeInfo
    jsmith
    role,admin,15,role,contributor,15
    @end
    

4.14.5 CHANGE_USER_AUTH_TYPE

Service that changes the authentication type (global, local, or external) for users.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • curUserAuthType: Current user authentication type.

  • dUserAuthType: New user authentication type.

4.14.6 CHECK_USER_CREDENTIALS

Service that checks the credentials of a user. You can use this service to get information about a user (for example, roles and accounts), or use it to check a user/password pair to see if they match. This is called during the authentication process. The data is cached so it is not called for every service request.

This service does not return user data for Microsoft Active Directory managed users when the Content Server instance is configured to use ADSI. It does return the user data for local users and external LDAP managed users.

Access Level: N/A (0)

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Additional Required Service Parameters

  • userName: The user name

Optional Service Parameters

  • getUserInfo: 0 (false): Does not retrieve extended user information. 1 (true): Retrieves extended user information (full name, e-mail address, locale, and user type)

  • hasSecurityInfo: 0 (false): Retrieves the user accounts. 1 (true): Does not retrieve the user accounts.

  • authenticateUser: 0 (false): Does not authenticate the user (validate that the user/password pair match). 1 (true): Authenticates the user (validate that the user/password pair match). In this case, the userPassword parameter must be specified.

  • userPassword: The password for the specified user name. If the authenticateUser parameter is included and set to 1 (true), the userPassword parameter must be specified.

  • userExtendedInfo: This parameter, combined with the getUserInfo parameter, returns the user's accounts and groups in the data binder. 0 (false): Does not retrieve the information. 1 (true): Retrieves the information.

Results

  • Local Data:

    • extendedInfo: HDA-encoded string containing user info fields (ndUserLocale, nblFieldTypes, ndEmail, nblDateFormat, ndFullName, ndUserType, ndUserAuthType, ndUserChangeDate, ndUserTimeZone, and ndUserArriveDate). Only returned if optional parameter 'getUserInfo' is 1 (true).

Access Level: Read, Global (17)

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm

Actions

The following actions are used with the topicString parameter:

  • updateKeys: Updates a single LocalData key variable. The topicString parameter takes 4 values: the first 3 required values plus a fourth that contains the literal string value to be placed in the key variable.

  • updateKeyByName: This action is new as of Content Server version 10gR1. Like updateKeys, this action updates a single LocalData key variable. It also takes 4 topicString values. Instead of containing a literal string, the fourth value contains the name of an additional field/parameter that contains the value to be used in the update.

  • deleteKeys: Deletes a single key variable. The topicString parameter takes the 3 required values only.

  • updateRows: This action is used to add or update one or more result set rows using a single topic string. The topicString parameter takes 5 values: the first 3 required values; a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of all result set column names in correct order; a fifth containing a number indicating the total number of rows being updated/added.

    A set of additional fields/parameters with names corresponding to the column names must be provided for each row of data based upon the number of rows indicated in the fifth value of the topicString. Sequential numeric suffixes must be appended to the column names of the fields in each row's data set beginning with one and ending with total row number provided in the topicString (if any of these are missing, the Content Server system throws an error).

    If the value for the first column (the unique key) of a row in the update data matches that of an existing row in the result set, the existing row will be updated; otherwise a new row will be appended to the bottom of the result set.

  • addMruRow: The "Mru" in the name is an acronym for most-recenly-used. This action adds a single row to the top of a result set. The number of rows in the result set is not allowed to exceed a specified maximum. If a row is added to a result set that already contains the maximum number of rows, the last row is deleted at the same time that the new one is added (essentially keeping only the N most recently used rows in a result set).

    The maximum number of rows can be specified using an optional mruNumber parameter. If no mruNumber parameter is provided, the maximum defaults to 10.

    The topicString parameter takes 4 values: the first 3 required values and a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of all result set column names in correct order. Similar to updateRows, a set of additional fields/parameters with names corresponding to the column names must be provided; but since only one row is added/updated at a time, no numeric suffixes are required on the names.

    If the value of the first column (the unique key) matches that of an existing row, that row is updated and moved to the top of the result set rather than adding a new row. The number of rows doesn't change, and the affected row is now considered the most-recently-used row.

  • deleteRows: Deletes one or more rows from a result set. The topicString parameter takes 4 values: the first 3 required values, and a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of strings that correspond to the DATA VALUES of the first column (unique key) of existing rows in the specified result set.

  • deleteSets: Deletes one or more result sets from a topic file. The topicString parameter takes only 3 values, but in this case, the third value can be a comma-delimited list of names rather than a single key name, allowing multiple result sets to be deleted using a single topicString.

Optional Service Parameters

  • numTopics: Tells the service the number of topicStrings to expect.

  • topicKeys: Identifies the topic string parameter fields by name. Composed of a colon-separated list of one or more names that correspond to fields or parameters that contain the topic strings. A numTopics value must be present when this parameter is used, even if you don't use the enumeration method of identifying topic string values. (Any value can be used for numTopics.)

  • topicStringn: Composed of three to five values, separated by colons. The number of topic strings depends on the value in numTopics. For example, if numTopics is 2, topicString1 and topicString2 are required.

    The values are as follows:

    • The first value is the action to be taken by the service.

    • The second value is the name of the topic file that is acted on.

    • The third value is the key name of the item being modified (either the name of a LocalData key variable, or the name of a result set in the topic file).

    • The fourth value contains data information for an add or update action. It either contains the data string itself, or it points to additional fields or parameters that contain the data values.

    • The fifth value is used only with the updateRows action to indicate the number of rows of data being sent.

    All of the update actions perform 'add' operations if a key of the given name is not found in the specified topic file. If a topic file matching the name given in the second value is present, but doesn't contain a key (variable or result set) matching the key name given in the third value, then a new variable or result set will be created using the data provided for the update operation. If the topic file itself is not found, it will also be created.

  • RedirectUrl: Used to display another page. If omitted, the user is redirected to the Oracle WebCenter Content Server home page.

  • mruNumber: Used to specify the maximum number of rows in a result set when using the addMruRow - 'Add Most-Recently-Used Row' action.

Results

  • Result Sets: UserTopicEdits (Rows represent each of the topic edits performed by the service call. Rows contain the fields: topicName, topicEditAction, topicKey, topicValue.)

  • Response Template:

    • REDIRECT_TEMPLATE (redirect_template.htm)

    • Default redirect service: GET_DOC_PAGE: HOME_PAGE

Examples

Caution:

The following example is not a core configuration of the Content Server instance. This is a custom feature extension and is only supported through the purchase of Consulting Services or through the purchase of our Developer Support Token Program. As with all customization, when you upgrade your software, the custom changes may be overwritten.

To add a personal URL, use the following parameters and values:

numTopics=1
topicString1=updateRows:pne_portal:PersonalURLS:title,website:1

These values add rows in the PersonalURLS ResultSet in the pne_portal.hda user topic. The columns in the ResultSet are title and website, which are taken from the fourth value of the topic string. The last value (1) tells the service that one row of data is being sent.

You must use additional parameters to the service to specify the row data. These parameters are taken from the title and website column names specified in the topicString. Because it is possible to specify more than one row of data, a numeric suffix is added to each of the column names to form the service parameter name. The first row would require the title1 and website1 parameters and a second row would require the title2 and website2 parameters.

To add a row of data that is a link to the home page, set the values of the title1 and website1 parameters to Home Page and http://www.example.com. These values must be URL-encoded if you are adding them directly to the URL in the browser address bar; if you use a form in a web page to submit the data, encoding is handled. Using a form, the complete service specification would be the following:

<FORM name='addPersonalUrlForm' method='POST'
action='<$HttpCgiPath$>'>
<INPUT type='hidden' name='IdcService' value='SAVE_USER_TOPICS'>
<INPUT type='hidden' name='numTopics' value='1'>
<INPUT type='hidden' name='topicString1'
value='updateRows:pne_portal:PersonalURLS:title,website:1'>
<INPUT type='hidden' name='title1' value='Company Home Page'>

4.14.28 UPDATE_USEROPTION_LIST

Service that adds or updates an option list for a user information field.

Caution:

The option list values specified in the OptionListString parameter replace any existing values. To retain existing values, you must include the existing values along with the new values.

Option list values for the User Type field and all custom user information fields are not stored in the database but in the useroptions.hda file, which is normally located in the DomainHome/ucm/cs/data/users/config/ directory.

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/tables/std_services.htm
