Hi the problem in your code is that you are instantiating a new alfrescoApi when you do :

   this.alfrescoJsApi = new AlfrescoApi({ provider: 'ALL' });
‍

and this API new object is missing of configuration of the ecmHost that you should pass in the constructor.

In your case, you are already anyway injecting the ADF AlfrescoApiService in the constructor when you do

constructor(private apiService: AlfrescoApiService) {
....
}‍‍‍

and you could use that instance of the js-api to do your job:

constructor(private apiService: AlfrescoApiService) {
 this.apiService.getInstance().webScripti.executeWebScript('GET', 'api/task-instances?authority=' +   this.authService.getEcmUsername())‍
}‍‍‍

Hi Eugenio Romano,

Thanks for reply.

What is the difference between "alfrescoJsApi.core.webscriptApi" and "apiService.getInstance().webScript"?

Thanks

Vidhi

The first is a new instance that you are going to declare that is nor initialized by ADF and you need to configure it and handle the lifecycle.

The second is an instance created by ADF when bootstrap the core. It gets the configuration from the app.config.json of the framework and you can consume it without care about the lifecycle of it

I tried

constructor(private apiService: AlfrescoApiService) {
 this.apiService.getInstance().webScripti.executeWebScript('GET', 'api/task-instances?authority=' +   this.authService.getEcmUsername())‍
}

The terminal said:

error TS2339: Property 'webScript' does not exist on type 'AlfrescoApi'.
