Assets API

Get Asset Binary

Parameters

The items API can have multiple parameters specified, some of them must be in the URL, others can be passed in the body of the request depending on the action (GET or POST).

Following parameters must always be provided:

  • Type: Asset

  • Key: {The GUID of the asset}/{The name of the rendition}

 Example:  /api/assets/asset/00001627-5cf9-4da3-8edf-aa77008ffcfc/Large

Key

 There is a configurable setting available in the DAM for defining which qualities/renditions you want to publish to external systems (like ODS).
 These are the qualities that can be used in the settings:

  • General use

    • Thumbnail

    • Large

    • Original

  • Documents only

    • Preview

  • Video only

    • MP4

    • Webm

    • Ogg

    • Webvideo

Get Asset By Id

The Items API allows users to get an item by id. This API does not use the search engine. Searching is therefore not enabled here. The items API fetches an item directly from the source which is why a key must be provided.

Example:  /api/items/asset/00001627-5cf9-4da3-8edf-aa77008ffcfc

Search Asset

The API supports a searching mechanism to easily find back the items you are looking for. The search API has the ability to use search text, facets, filtering and paging.  Navigate through the menu to find related documentation.

Example:  /api/search/asset
