Summary

In this chapter, we have gone through most of the basic functionalities that are likely to be used on a day-to-day basis and learned how to use them with both the AtomPub protocol and the Browser binding protocol. We have seen how we can list the contents of a folder and navigate to the subfolders. The Browser binding has shown us that it is quite easy to work with CMIS via this binding as you can use HTML forms for almost all operations and it is easy to integrate with the UI this way.

In this chapter, we also looked into how to download the content types that the repository supports, which is important as you are likely to set custom types when uploading new content. We also covered how to create, read, update, and delete documents and folders for a specific domain. And finally, we went through how to download a document.

In the next chapter, we will look into more features supported by CMIS such as version management, access control, and searching for content.
