I'm trying to implement searching of files in Alfresco based on the properties of the content model of the document.

I found this ReST API:

GET /alfresco/s/slingshot/search?term={term?}&tag={tag?}&site={site?}&container={container?}&sort={sort?}&query={query?}&repo={repo?}

But I'm not sure how to pass the property name of the document in the query parameter.

For ex:

My docuemt content model is: dc:InvoiceModel

Property name is: dc:doctype.

So, I want to pass the dc:doctype as query parameter as Sales Invoice for example to fetch all the documents of the type Sales Invoice. The documents are inside a folder in the documentLibrary

I tried doing this:

http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/slingshot/search?container=documentLibrary/newfolder&sort=dc:dc:doc...false&repo=true&startIndex=0&query={"dc:doctype":"Sales Invoice","datatype":"d:text"}

But I'm getting zero records found. Could you please help me do this.

Alfresco Version:

Alfresco Share v5.1.f (r125711-b6, Aikau 1.0.63, Spring Surf 5.1.f, Spring WebScripts 6.5, Freemarker 2.3.20-alfresco-patched, Rhino 1.7R4-alfresco-patched, Yui 2.9.0-alfresco-20141223)

Alfresco Community v5.1.0 (r127059-b7) schema 10001

Thank you all!

be careful: slingshot is not a public API (but in 5.1 you don't have a public search API). In 5.2 you should use the Alfresco Content Services REST API

In this SO question you should already find you answer: Passing multiple search arguments to Alfresco slingshot search Webscript

some remarks:

  • container: could be one of the site container types like documentLibrary but only makes sense together with a site
  • query: (defaults to Alfresco FTS) should look like dc\:doctype:"Sales Invoice" but should be url encoded. You could also add a PATH query as shown in the answer above
