Get field values

Your application can retrieve a list of all field values for each topic, topic template, or work team by calling the getFieldValues method.

This method can be used to browse topics and choose a topic based on additional information, such as the assigned user, state, or to browse topic templates or work teams. Set the fieldContext argument to one of the enumeration values of FieldContext: TOPICS, TOPIC_TEMPLATES, or WORKTEAMS. This method returns the FieldValues value object with a list of fields.

• For topics, the values reflect topics that are open and can be either viewed or attached to by the user.
• For work teams, the values reflect work teams associated with topics available to the user.

FieldValues getFieldValues(TopicsServiceContext serviceContext,
  FieldContext fieldContext)
  throws InvalidArgumentException, TopicsServiceException;

enum FieldContext {
 TOPICS, TOPIC_TEMPLATES, WORKTEAMS
