Using Vault service API with Javascript

Anonymous
Not applicable

As the title says, I'd like to know if anyone is accessing Vault through Javascript?  I'm working on something and I'd like to use Node.JS as my backend for it, and I'd like to do some simple searching and getting files (not checkout, just get a view).  Anyone doing this or had any success?

Hi,

 

if You are able to make remote requests to any SOAP standard Web Service You are able to do it using JS also...

One simple hint.

Install Fiddler and analize requests made by Vault Professional Client then do the same using JS.

Thanks for the reply.  I have Fiddler and all that installed, and I know it's possible.  I think I asked the question wrong.  What I'm really wondering is has anyone found a good library or can anyone point me at something to start with so that I don't have to roll my own plumbing for this.  Sample code, something from Autodesk, anything?

quick fishing expedition - has this perhaps changed?  I asked this a couple years ago and was wondering if the landscape had changed with Forge and such available.

You can use powerVault from coolOrange and use a Windows Powershell script to use the Vault APIs. Call the Powershell from Javascript. 

 

...Thinking about it, you could call out the needed Interops from Powershell and use it to connect to the Vault APIs also. You might not even need powerVault.

Hi, I'm reading this post now and I'd like to know if you at that time solved your problem. I want to add a file to vault using typescript  but I can't quite understand vault API. I manage to connect and get the information of what I already have in vault using soap calls, I would like to use the same method to add a new file but I can't find the right procedure or the functions to call. If you used vault services API with Javascript, could you please share how you did it. thanks
