CMIS Query Editor

Edits a property containing a CMISQL Query, providing an interactive interface for building, testing, and executing queries against a CMIS repository.

Remarks

The CMIS Query Editor control enables users to compose, validate, and execute CMISQL Query statements for searching and retrieving documents or folders from a CMIS Repository. It is designed for advanced data integration scenarios, supporting both direct query editing and repository-assisted search.

UI Components

  • Allows users to enter or modify the CMISQL query string.
  • Supports syntax highlighting, code completion, and validation for CMISQL syntax.
  • Provides error feedback and guidance for query construction.
• Repository Selection:
  • Displays the current repository context for the query.
  • Ensures that queries are executed against the correct repository, with access to its content types and properties.
• Filter Mode Toggle:
  • Indicates whether the editor is in filter mode, affecting available query features and validation.

  • Repository connection errors are reported with actionable messages.

Usage Guidance

Use the CMIS Query Editor to build and test queries for importing, validating, or reporting on repository content. Enter the desired CMISQL statement, select the appropriate repository, and execute the query to view results. Leverage syntax highlighting and code completion for efficient query construction.

• For field validation, construct queries that filter results based on Grooper field values.
• For data import, use SELECT clauses to specify which properties to retrieve.
• Use filter mode for specialized scenarios requiring restricted query logic.
• Review returned results and adjust the query as needed for accuracy and performance.

Accessibility

• Fully navigable by keyboard and mouse.
• Screen reader support for query editor, searcher, and result list.
