Desactivate a content model : find where it is used

pemath66 — Tue, 24 Jan 2023 11:11:00 GMT

Hello everyone, glad to join the community !

I've a quite simple question, based on this docs : https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/unable-to-change-document-type-back-to-default-properties/td-p/298052

It is mentionned we can "Find Where Used" to know which documents use that model, but I cannot figure how to do that. How could we know with a simple search what documents is based on one paticular model ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

Try to make several simple searches of all custom types, custom asspects and custom properties declarated in your custom content model. Look for any value.

Thanks for your answer. I find the tool to find usage : on the type/aspect definition page, in the action menu, it is possible to "find usage" of that type/aspect.

But that did not solve my problem. After some reseach, I remember I deleted one document containing an aspect. I erased it and can now desactivate the model. By the way, is there a possibility to search inside the recycle bin for a model, with the format TYPE:"model:type" ? As I can see, the search is quite limited in the recycle bin, right ?
