Hi,

if you want to do it from code (Alfresco side):


//repo webscript

scriptNode.unlock()

‍‍‍‍‍‍



//java

getLockService().unlock(nodeRef);

‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

thanks for your feedback.
In fact this works when using PERSISTENT locks, but no way to unlock on behalf of other user when content is locked
using EPHEMERAL lock. I'm working on it. LockStore service code override is needed.
