Record samples

On most methods, you’ll see the parameter named “recId” and “fldId”. The value of these parameters can be a valid record and folder UUID.

First, you must create the webservice object:

OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host);

Then you should log in using the “login” method. You can access the “login” method from the webservice object “ws” as shown below:

ws.login(user, password);

At this point you can use all the Record methods from the “record” class as shown below:

Terminal window
ws.record.create("ada67d44-b081-4b23-bdc1-74181cafbc5d", "PKI-100200", "new title", 0)

Description:

Method Return values Description
createWithPropertyGroup(String uuid, String name, String title, long nodeClass, String grpName, Dictionary<String, String> properties) Record Creates a new record and sets a property group’s properties in the same call. Returns a Record object.
