Hello,I'm trying to retrieve the objects that some user marked as favorite using cmis. I searched for queryable properties but I didn't find nothing. There is a way to do that?thanks!

Hello,

using pure CMIS you can not retrieve documents / folders marked as favorites. But you can use the Public API (hybrid CMIS + ReST) to do this. Please see the document of the Public API in the <a href="https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_API#Documentation">Alfresco Wiki</a>.

In 5.0, it looks like the correct REST call is to use the /people/userid/preferences (optionally with a filter for the documents or folders favorites). The documentation doesn't really make it clear how to add/remove favorites from a user's preferences. The original, 1.0 API docs that are pointed to in this post (which is a year old, I admit) indicate an explicit "favorites" call, but that doesn't appear to exist anymore.

Thanks for any help or links to samples!
