CMIS & Collaboration features

[imran]

Hello Experts,
I am trying to build an application (Java) on the top alfresco. I need both repository features document, folder, acl etc. and also collaboration features comments,likes etc.
I plan to use CMIS; however, I see that CMIS does not support collaborative features. Could anyone guide me what to do? Is it possible to comment on a document with CMIS somehow? Or is it possible to extend CMIS and add new custom service and expose it as a new CMIS service? Any pointers are highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Other option which you can explore is REST APIs. Any yes you can extend those CMIS services.

The relevant documentation in 4.0 is here:
http://docs.alfresco.com/4.0/references/RESTful-intro.html

But the documentation on this topic improved a lot in 5.0:
