Error while creating folder

[amitnkukanur]

Hello,

I am doing a customization for Vault Professional 2014 and C# as my development language.

I am trying to create folders and its working perfectly for most of users created. However for one particular user i am getting error as 3100. 

I checked this error in API Documentation and found error as BadLifecycleDefinitionID, Can some one please suggest me a way to resolve this issue

Which AddFolder method are you using?

There is the AddFolder in the DocumentService, and there is the AddFolderWithCategory in the DocumentServiceExtensions.

If it's the former, look at the default category for folders to see if it has a lifecycle.

If it's the latter, take a look at the definition whose ID is being passed.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for Reply. Currently i am using  "AddFolder in the DocumentService" to add folders.

Like you said to have a look to "default category for folders to see if it has a lifecycle". I will surely work on it and check if any lifecycle is there.

Did this work? I just get a soap 303 error

Hi Mark,

Yes, it worked in my case as i changed the folder category. Try with different categories.

Can you elaborate on error.
