DSPACE 7 REST API INTEGRATION

[Nicolas Battaglia]

Hi everyone

I am working on an integration between dspace and a proprietary system through REST. My question is about the way to obtain the item_id after depositing a workflow_item, since I need it for the trace of this integration.

I can't see in the flow through the angular client inspection and in the documentation how to do it.
Any ideas?

thanks a lot

Best regards
Nicolas

Hi Nicolas,

The Item ID of a Workflow Item can be obtained via the /workflowitems/[id]/item endpoint.  It's available even before the workflow item is completed/submitted and it does not change after the workflow item is deposited.  See our contract at

https://github.com/DSpace/RestContract/blob/main/workflowitems.md#item

You can similarly also get the Item from the /workspaceitems endpoint too...

If you have other questions, let us know on this list.
