Rebuild flash previews?

jan — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 09:19:05 GMT

We have uploaded a lot of documents to the site through ftp.Some of the documents have flash previews and thumbnails, a lot of documents don't.It would be nice if there was a way to let the server rebuild all flash previews/thumbnails for all documents through eg a script that could be run manually.

Hi,

I'm interested by the very same topic (how to make recalculate preview).
Additionally, if it was possible to do a request (SQL or LUCENE) to identify all the bad files it would be fabulous.
Any answer will be more than welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Francois

You could loop around the file you wanted calling the updateThumbnail() API: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/3.0_JavaScript_Services_API#Thumbnail_Services
