Arcana Document Server CMIS API’s

1 min read

Arcana DocumentServer comes along with different API’s, most important the CMIS API version 1.1.
The Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) standard defines a domain model along with different bindings that can be used by applications to work with one or more Content Management repositories/systems.

The CMIS interface defines a generic/universal set of capabilities provided by a CM system and a set of services for working with those capabilities. Basically, the feature set needed by an application is implemented by the application itself using the standard functionality defined
by the CMIS interface.

There are some nice tools existing, most important and commonly used is Apache’s Chemistry toolset. It contains the Cmis Workbench, a tool
giving a deep look into the items stored in your repository. Basically, it enables you to view the data structure and execute operations depending on the the item type you selected.
More interesting may be the variety of client libraries offered by Apache Chemistry, enabling developers to implement document management functionality with the CMIS domain model choosing one of a variety of programming languages supported.

Arcana Document Server CMIS supports the browser binding, as it has no restrictions regarding the CMIS capability set. This binding is also used by SAP to connect to the S/4 landscape.
Following you will find a description on how to connect the CMIS workbench and the SAP BTP to Arcana Document Server CMIS and how to use different tools like Postman or Groovy scripts to
execute functions as a CMIS client.
