Completed workflows for a document

prachi379 — Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:14:50 GMT

I would like to use the REST API to return the completed workflows for a document. The following works for me, it returns ALL the completed workflows - http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/api/workflow-instances?state=completedBut it will not work for specific document - http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s

Further usecase information -

I want to create a new page which displays a list of ALL the workflows for the document. I would like to link this page to the workflows section in document details and have this page be visible to all users who have access to the document itself (and not just those who are a part of the workflow). I have been investigating and trying out ways to achieve this and the easiest way so far is to have the REST API work the way described above.

I wanted to know where the code for these services is located, if anyone has a clue please let me know!

Answering my own question for anyone else looking for a solution - I was able to achieve this by creating a new web script to return the active as well as completed workflows. I setup the alfresco dev environment in eclipse to implement the web script controller. The existing web scripts are in the jar file alfresco-remote-api-5.0.a.jar and if you see the implementation of workflow-instances-for-node, things will be more clear.

I then used this web script in a page that looks similar to 'my-workflows' and linked to this page in document details.
