Question

Using Laserfiche's SDK can you exchange data between Laserfiche and the other application?

Laserfiche SDK

asked on April 7, 2014

For example, I have a case management system with a defendant's name. Using Affinity I've imported this name into a Laserfiche template field. Then someone notices that the name in the original program is wrong and corrects it - would it be possible for the SDK to then trigger the change in Laserfiche to update the template data? So I would need it to trigger a case # search and when it finds the case folder update the template with the revised name? They would also like it to work in reverse - someone updates the template in Laserfiche and it pushes that information to the case management system.

Thanks

Every operation on the server is available through the SDK. It is the only interface that both Web Access and the desktop client use to communicate with the Laserfiche server. So yes, updating data is certainly possible.

For your particular scenario, a search and a metadata update seems like a good way to push that change to Laserfiche, as long as you can arrange it so that the search only returns the one record you are interested in. Listening to updates in Laserfiche is tricky, the easiest way to do that would be to use Workflow.
