Changing folder permit inheritance from java application

We are using CMIS to interact from java web application with Alfresco repository. Folder permissions are also changed by CMIS except folder permit inheritance.To turn off permit inheritance on each folder we had to use folder rule with script (in brief):function main(){ if (document.isContainer)

IMO there is no way to be sure that this is going to run in every invocation.

You need to change the rule by other approach. As CMIS does not allow to reset inheritance, you should use Alfresco Native REST API. I'm not aware that this option is available in the new Rest API (the Swagger one) nor in the traditional Rest API. So you have to use Share REST API (which is not the best choice but it's the only one). Take a look at

So you can make a REST invocation and then use your CMIS code.
