Fetch livelink documents using lapi - C#

Dear All,

Can anybody help me by providing a sample code using C# to download documents from livelink. I am new to LAPI, hence would be grateful if you could help me in this regard.

Thanks,

try my website livelink.in.In there are links to the communities website with links to lapi code
lapi is very old you are sure you want that or the new web services stuff?
C# and java are most times interchaengeable once you know what to change where

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?

Hi,

Thank you for the response. Unfortunately my client doesn't allow the webservices to be used in their network due to security concerns. Alternatively i thought i can go with LAPI. My requirement is to fetch the documents and their metadata from livelink.

I will go through the links which you mentioned in your response, but meantime you have a code available, please post it.


Thanks,
Siva

The communities website of KB is a free registering site.It had some order hitherto but in the wake of lapi being gone I think the samples may vanish.All it takes is a free registartion
You can get to working links form

You just need any working sample in C# get connection with a userid/password.
Everything document in livelink revolves around a nodeid(objid,dataid) this id is visible in the
URL that you see in the GUI.If you put FetchVersion in C# ide it should show you the
params that is download for you.
