xecm 25.3.1

Simple Python library to call Opentext Extended ECM REST API

XECM

This python library calls the Opentext Extended ECM REST API. The API documentation is available on OpenText Developer A detailed documentation of this package is available on GitHub. Our Homepage is: xECM SuccessFactors Knowledge

Quick start

Install "xecm":

pip install xecm

Start using the xecm package

Basic API Functions - in case that something is not available in this class

    # GET API Call
    res = csapi.call_get(f'{cshost}/otcs/cs.exe/api/v1/nodes/2000/classifications')

    # POST API Call using form-url-encoded -> i.e. do fancy search
    res = csapi.call_post_form_url_encoded(f'{cshost}/otcs/cs.exe/api/v2/search', { 'body': json.dumps({ 'where': 'OTName: "Personal Information" and OTSubType: 131 and OTLocation: 2006' })})

    # POST API Call using form-data -> can be used to upload files
    data = { 'type': 144, 'parent_id': parent_id, 'name': remote_filename }
    params = { 'body' : json.dumps(data) }
    files = {'file': (remote_filename, open(os.path.join(local_folder, local_filename), 'rb'), 'application/octet-stream')}
    res = csapi.call_post_form_data(f'{cshost}/otcs/cs.exe/api/v2/nodes', params, files)

    # PUT API Call
    params = {'body': json.dumps(category)}
    res = self.call_put(f'{cshost}/otcs/cs.exe/api/v2/nodes/{node_id}/categories/{category_id}', params)

    # DELETE API Call
    res = self.call_delete(f'{cshost}/otcs/cs.exe/api/v2/nodes/{node_id}/categories/{category_id}')
