OrchestraCMS APIs

OrchestraCMS provides a feature rich suite of APIs that allow developers the extensibility they need to get their content to the channel they want.

OrchestraCMS APIs are versioned. As features are enhanced and added in new releases of OrchestraCMS the APIs will be versioned from time to time. This allows for backwards compatibility in any code developed with those APIs. One of the parameters that can be provided as part of any API call is the apiVersion parameter which will have a value of the version number; for example, 5.0.

API Resources

To use the APIs you first need to deploy some resource files as unmanaged code within your Salesforce Organization. These resource code files are included as a Salesforce Static Resource as part of your OrchestraCMS installation. The steps to deploy these resources into your Salesforce Organization are included below.

Locate and download the OrchestraCMSAPI Static Resource in Salesforce. If the file is not available, please contact Stantive Customer Support.
Unzip the cms__OrchestraCMSAPI.zip file that was just downloaded to your computer.
Deploy all the unzipped files to your Salesforce Organization(s).

Each time an updated OrchestraCMS package is installed into a Salesforce Org the OrchestraCMSAPI Static Resource may have been updated. When updating OrchestraCMS it is a best practice to download the new OrchestraCMSAPI Static Resource, extract the files to your code repository and push the updated files to your Salesforce Org.
