i am trying to update the name of a document in alfresco using the webscript :
POST /alfresco/service/api/node/content/workspace/SpacesStore/
i am getting a 405 responce from the server .
is this the right webscript to update a node properties ?
this is the code i am using to send the request
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(urlString);
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
json.put("ContentType", "application/json");
json.put("name", "yosri");
HttpEntity e = new StringEntity(json.toString());
httppost.setEntity(e);
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

Hi yosrioh_
You cannot update properties this way. You can use instead
POST /alfresco/s/api/metadata/node/{store_type}/{store_id}/{id}
If you're using a recent Alfresco version (5.2.something) you can then use the newer v1 API:
Alfresco Content Services REST API Explorer
Or you can write a tiny webscript using java or javascript API to match exactly your needs.

hello
thx for your answer i tried POST /alfresco/s/api/metadata/node/{store_type}/{store_id}/{id} and i got a 200 responce from server but the document title isn't changing
is there a problem with the Json object im sending ?
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
json.put("ContentType", "application/json");
json.put("fileName", "yosri");
HttpEntity e = new StringEntity(json.toString());
httppost.setEntity(e);
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

Yes you need a json object as expected by the webscript. It must contains a "properties" element and appropriate properties set in it.
Something like:
{
"properties": {
"cm:description": "Some desc"
}
}

The error message says it all...
You're trying to work on a node that doesn't exist. Check that "nodeRef" returns a *valid* node reference.
you can also use your tomcat access log to see the full URL accessed by your code, and check the nodeRef actually exists in the node browser.

i checked the tomcat log like you suggested and i found the url sent to server
192.168.10.87 - - [17/Aug/2017:12:47:18 +0100] "POST /alfresco/service/api/login HTTP/1.1" 200 90
192.168.10.87 - - [17/Aug/2017:12:47:18 +0100] "POST /alfresco/service/api/metadata/node/workspace/SpaceStore/nodeRef=workspace://SpacesStore/a2ad1215-da21-40e0-baf2-39532170d846?alf_ticket=TICKET_360e0e0f5beaaa036009c534d578ce46a70f0bfe HTTP/1.1" 404 437
i cheked also the node and it exists
is there something wrong with the url ?
08-17-2017 05:06 AM
yes there is. You're using "nodeRef=fullyQualifiedNodeRef" as the last component of the the URL.
Use only the UUID part of the nodeRef.
So URL should be:
/alfresco/service/api/metadata/node/workspace/SpacesStore/a2ad1215-da21-40e0-baf2-39532170d846?alf_ticket=TICKET_360e0e0f5beaaa036009c534d578ce46a70f0bfe

i have changed the url but i get the same responce
192.168.10.87 - - [17/Aug/2017:13:15:14 +0100] "POST /alfresco/service/api/metadata/node/workspace/SpaceStore/a2ad1215-da21-40e0-baf2-39532170d846?alf_ticket=TICKET_360e0e0f5beaaa036009c534d578ce46a70f0bfe HTTP/1.1" 404 402
and this is the url of the node
