Hello,
any idea how to upload document to a specific cabinet with specifying the tags?
example:
i want to upload document1.jpg to cabinet3 with tags: tag6,tag8.

Hi,

It is not possible to upload a document while also adding to a cabinet and adding a tag. These operations must be done separately.

First, upload the document via the API as outlined here: https://docs.mayan-edms.com/chapters/rest_api.html
Then using the ID returned in the previous response, do two more requests: one to the tags API and the other to the cabinets API.

Hi Bixmatech,

could you please add some code how you finally added the document to a cabinet?

I on my part had no luck so far. I tried python:

Code: Select all

res=this.Session.post(this.Url+"/cabinets/"+str(parentId)+"/documents/",data={"documents_pk_list":str(docId)}).json()

where parentId is a valid id of a cabinet and docId is the id returned when adding it to mayan.
However, the function returns ok but no document is added

Alternatively, I tried curl:

Code: Select all

curl -u admin:pass -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/cabinets/11/documents/" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"documents_pk_list\":\"116\"}"

No response but also no document in the cabinet.

Any hints?

Thank you,
Ed
