REST API to upload PDF's and index values to categories and Attributes in Open Text CS 10.5

Question

I want to upload some documents to Open Text via the REST API's. I have an Open Text CS set up, but I am not able to hit any of the REST API's.

Also, I need to know how to map my document attributes to that with the categories/attributes in Open Text and upload the same to CS.

Answer 1

Have you got the RestAPI Module installed?(sorry, had to ask)

You will find this on the Opentext Support Site and will need a valid login to download it.

Have you looked at these freely available guides on the Opentext Developer Site?, including;

• OpenText RESTful API standard
• REST API - Quick Start Guide

These should help you get started.

There is also an excellent guide to using Postman (Chrome Plugin) to test connections and get to know the api.

• Using Postman for Content Server RestAPI

You will likely need to consult the Content Server API v1 (2014-06) to figure out what you need to put in to access all the features.
