If you login as admin to your alfresco repository webscript pages on http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/index you will be able to see all the webscripts that are available if you click on "Browse by Web Script URI".

One alternative is to use the following webscript to get metadata back in json format:

http://localhost:8081/share/proxy/alfresco/api/metadata?nodeRef=workspace://SpacesStore/7edc8a54-276d-487c-a7a3-a58f15804e0b‍

…and to get the content you can do:

http://localhost:8081/share/proxy/alfresco/api/node/content/workspace/SpacesStore/7edc8a54-276d-487c-a7a3-a58f15804e0b/IMG_1403.JPG?c=force&noCache=1332324715866‍

Cheers, Erik

hi,
Thanks for ur reply.
But this is not what i want.
I am not trying to get the content of a file (ex. datadictionary->sites->mysite->test->sample.html).

But am trying to get properties of sample.html.
i have changed the type of sample.html to article type.
after clicking edit properties, i see a list of properties to be filled.
name,description,primary image,secondary image.
i have set an image(ex. datadictionary->sites->mysite->images->lotus.jpg) as primary image.

how do i call the primary image of sample.html through webscripts?

Regards,
Ranj

Hi again Ranj, let's hope I'm more correct this time then 🙂

Have you taken a close look at this webscript?
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/script/org/alfresco/cmis/content.get

It is the same one that I used to display the actual content of the node (which in your case turned out to be html), but you should be able to use it to display a property of a node as well by specifying the {property} in the url. So try something like this instead…

http://localhost:8081/share/proxy/alfresco/api/node/contentranj:primaryImage/workspace/SpacesStore/7edc8a54-276d-487c-a7a3-a58f15804e0b?c=force&noCache=1332324715866‍

Where "ranjrimaryImage" of course is the name of your custom property.

Cheers, Erik
