Examples
Content Operations (JavaScript):
This example demonstrates how to manage content items in Pyramid.
The example uses API authentication driven from JavaScript. See Authentication APIs for alternatives.
// URL of the Pyramid installation and the path to the API 3.0 REST methods
var pyramidURL = "http://mySite.com/api3/";
// step 1: authenticate admin account and get token
// NOTE: callApi method is a generic REST method shown below.
let token = callApi("authentication/authenticateUser",{
"userName":"adminUser",
"password":"abc123!"
},"",false);
log("got token "+token);
//step 2: get the default tenant ID
let defaultTenant=callApi("access/getDefaultTenant",{
},token // admin token generated above
);
//step 3: return the ID of the public root folder for the tenant from step 2
let tenentPublicFolder = callApi("content/getTenantPublicOrGroupFolder",{
"validRootFolderType": 1,//the public folder of the default tenant
"tenantId": defaultTenant
},token // admin token generated from step 1 above
);
//step 4: add a new folder to the public folder from step 3
let folderCreation = callApi("content/createNewFolder",{
"parentFolderId": tenentPublicFolder.id,
"folderName": "new folder"
},token);
let folderId=folderCreation.modifiedList[0].id;
//step 5: find roles
let findRole = callApi("access/findRoles",{
"searchValue": "role1",
"searchMatchType": 2//SearchMatchType.Equals
},token);
let roleId=findRole[0].roleId;
log("found role with id= "+ roleId);
//step 6:add the role we found in step 5 to the folder we created (folderId) in step 4
let addRoleToFolder= callApi("content/addRoleToItem",{
"itemId": folderId,
"roleId": roleId//SearchMatchType.Equals
},token);
//step 7: read in a Pyramid Import/Export ('PIE') file
let file="http://myOtherSite.com/Sample.pie";
let pieFile=readPieFile(file);
//step 8: import the PIT file into the folder from step 4
let importContent = callApi("content/importContent",{
"rootFolderId": folderId, //from step 4
"fileZippedData": pieFile, //the file's content from step 7
"clashDefaultOption":1,//ClashDefaultOption.REPLACE_FILE like default
"rolesAssignmentType":3//RoleAssignmentType.ForceParentFolderRoles take roles from parent folder
},token);
let itemId=Object.keys(importContent.importDscMap)[0];
//step 9: optional, search for the item we just imported, it's id is itemId
let findContentItem = callApi("content/findContentItem",{
"searchString":"import",
"filterTypes":[3],//ContentTypeObject.DataDiscoveryv
"searchMatchType":2,//SearchMatchType.Equals
"searchRootFolderType":1//SearchRootFolderType.Public
},token);
//step 10: check if you need to run datasource changer
// (since the datasource that created this report dosen't exists on this server)
if(importContent.importDscMap[itemId][0].needsToPerformDsc){
// step 10A: get item's data source connection
let correntConnectionStringId=importContent.importDscMap[itemId][0].connectionStringProperties.id
//step 10B: run the data source changer on the items
let changedDatasource = callApi("dataSources/changeDataSource",{
"fromConnId":correntConnectionStringId,
"toConnId":"55ff277a-53ff-4c39-8f15-5651f1026a2d",//retrive this id using 'getAllConnectionStrings'
"itemId":itemId
},token);
}
//step 11: copying the imported item to the tenant root folder
let copyItems = callApi("content/copyItems",{
"itemsForMove":[itemId],
"destinationFolder":tenentPublicFolder.id
},token);
//step 12: remove roles from the folder but not from the item
let removeRoleFromCreatedFolder= callApi("content/removeRolesFromItem",{
"itemId": folderId,
"roleIds": [roleId]
},token);
//step 13: hard delete the folder (permanently)
let folderDeletion = callApi("content/purgeContentItems",[
folderCreation.modifiedList[0].id
],token);
//step 14: soft-delete the items
let itemSoftDeletion = callApi("content/deleteItems",[
copyItems.modifiedList[0].id
],token);
function log(msg){
document.write(msg);
console.log(msg);
}
// ##### generic REST API calling method ##############

xhttp.setRequestHeader("paToken",token)
xhttp.send(JSON.stringify(data));
if(parseResult){
return JSON.parse(xhttp.responseText);
}else{
return xhttp.responseText;
}
}
//example function to read in the contents of a 'PIE' file that contains
//exported Pyramid content.
