I am using alfresco community version 5.2 and have stored some documents in it ..

I have a web application and i wanted to access the alfresco documents using the web application .. 

Is it possible that using the web application we can access the documents stored in the Alfresco . If so, please suggest how to do.

Alfresco provides different APIs in order to integrate web applications.

You can find some of them in this presentation:

There's a REST API that you can play with here: https://api-explorer.alfresco.com/api-explorer/

Maybe try some of those calls and then if you are still having trouble, come back here with specifics. Otherwise, with such a general question, you're only going to get general answers.

Good luck!

Thank you so much @jpotts for replying to my question.

I just wanted to know that is it possible that using api we can access the document library and also we can access the files stored in the alfresco . And i wanted only to access the document library files and folders from other application using the API.

If its possible please suggest  me some way to achieve my requirement.

I am not sure what else you are expecting here, Jeff has already provided the API explorer link, you can open it and explore all the available REST APIs that can be used to fulfil your use case, if there are any specific APIs required-> you have to develop them. 

Here are some additonal documentation links:
