site/search/properties (GET)

Overview

Retrieve all pages with a specified property

  • REST Method: GET
  • Method Access: public

Query Parameters

Name Type Description
name string The name of the property to search for
authenticate bool? Force authentication for request (default: false)
verbose bool? Show verbose page output. default: true

Return Codes

Name Value Description
OK 200 The request completed successfully
Bad Request 400 Invalid input parameter or request body

Message Format

Input: None

Output: Aggregate page XML data similar to GET:pages/{pageid} output

Implementation Notes

Feature will return a list of pages that have a property with a name that matches all or part of the search string.

Output is significantly shortened when verbose is set to false.

<pages>
    <page id="{int}" href="{uri}">
        <uri.ui>{uri}</uri.ui>
        <title>{text}</title>
        <path>{text}</path>
        <namespace>{namespace}</namespace>
     </page>
     <page>
     ...
</pages>

Encoding

All page properties created through the Expert UI are prefixed with "urn:custom.mindtouch.com#". The property search, unlike many other features in Expert, is singly encoded, hence the representation of the prefix in an address field or command line will be as follows:
urn%3acustom.mindtouch.com%23

The following command returns a list of page properties that exactly match the value of the "name" parameter:

curl flags

-u
Provides external user authentication. Note that if anonymous access is available and authentication is not forced, this flag may be omitted.
-i
Outputs the HTTP response headers. Useful for debugging.
