Direct link

You can download a document from OpenKM using a command line utility like wget. Since OpenKM 6.2.1 Community and OpenKM 6.2.5 Professional there is a service with BASIC authentication for this task. Direct link need a user which have login grants. A good practice is configure the profile of this user to disallow anything.

Available parameters:

• uuid ( the document UUID )
• path ( the document path )

Example

http://user:password@openkm_host/OpenKM/Download?uuid=4ca63b87-e340-443e-aeef-6c7e2fb57aea
http://user:password@openkm_host/OpenKM/Download?path=/okm:root/test/test.doc

This ease some integration tasks:

 $ wget http://okmAdmin:admin@localhost:8080/OpenKM/Download?uuid=xxx-yyy-zzz

You can reference a document by UUID using the uuid parameter or by path, using the path parameter. In the same URL you need to specify the user and password.

If you use path parameter, ia good practice encode url to prevent problems with special characters
