Member	lancetek - 5/19/2011 8:15:35 AM Add more information to the docs about using the API - DocumentAliasInfo For example: today I couldn't find any info on how to create a new DocumentAlias and assign it to a TreeNode. The Developer's guide API section didn't even mention DocumentAlias at all. Thanks, Lance

RE:Add more information to the docs about using the API - DocumentAliasInfo

Hello Lance,

Regrettably, Developer’s guide does not cover this topic. So, I have created a new requirement for Developer’s guide. For now, I prepared a new Knowledge base article for you that gives you basic information on how to create a Document aliases using API: How to create a new document alias using API.

Best regards,

RE:Add more information to the docs about using the API - DocumentAliasInfo

Thanks Michal, could someone please add a way to locate document aliases for a Node?

The only thing I've found is: DocumentAliasInfoProvider.GetDocumentAliases, but it doesn' seem to return consitant results - often if I already have a document with aliases, the dataset is empty. :(

Also seeing how to use DocumentAliasInfoProvider.DocumentAliasExists() would be helpful too.

Hello,

You can get document aliases for a document using the following code:


GeneralConnection conn = ConnectionHelper.GetConnection();
// Get aliases
DataSet ds = GetDocumentAliases("AliasNodeID = " + nodeId, null, conn);
if (!DataHelper.DataSourceIsEmpty(ds))
{
    // For each alias
    foreach (DataRow row in ds.Tables[0].Rows)
    {
        DocumentAliasInfo infoObj = new DocumentAliasInfo(row);
        if (infoObj != null)
        {
            ...
        }
    }
}

Best regards,
Michal Legen
