Working with collections

Open Postman
Click on import (left upper corner)

The DocuWare REST Collection

Most of our basic REST Requests (partly also the responses) are gathered in this collection.
All URLs are provided with environment variables.
To fill those variables you can import our sample environment DocuWare_REST_SampleEnvironment.postman_environment.json on the right upper corner.

Handle culture and language cookies

If you want to specify an exact culture or language you are able to use our cookies for that.
For culture DWFormatCulture and for language DWLanguage it is.

Add these in Postman as follows:
First open some request like Forms Authentication and click on Cookies.

Then select your connection and click add cookie.

Note

If there is no correct connection area for selection, first authenticate with the server.
You'll then receive an connection area for this server.

After that enter the correct values and click save.

Note

The value is based on RFC 4646 languagecode2(ISO 639-1)-country/regioncode2(ISO 3166-2) for culture and only the DocuWare supported languages will work!

Note

The value is in languagecode2(ISO 639-1) for language and only the DocuWare supported languages will work!
