CMIS - change nuxeo:lifecycleState

Eric_Ace — Thu, 04 May 2017 16:37:24 GMT

I'm trying to modify the nuxeo:lifecycleState via a CMIS statement: curl ...
/> -F "cmisaction:update"
/> -F "changeToken=..."
/> -F "propertyId[0]=nuxeo:lifecycleState"
/> -F "propertyValue[0]="approved"
/> "https:..."

It's not erroring. But it's not changing the lifecycle state. Should this be working? (P.S. We use CMIS extensively to modify other document properties as part of testing.) Thank you.

nuxeo:lifecycleState is a read-only property, as you'll see if you query the CMIS types. To change the lifecycle state you need to use non-CMIS methods of interaction with the Nuxeo native APIs. For example use the Nuxeo Automation APIs and call the Document.FollowLifecycleTransition operation.
