ContentDocument

Supported Calls

Customer and Partner Portal users must have the “View Content in Portal” permission in order to query content in workspaces where they have access.
A user can query all versions of a document from their personal workspace and any version that is part of or shared with a workspace where they are a member, regardless of workspace permissions.
A document can be deleted if any of the following are true:
- The document is published into a personal workspace or is in the user's upload queue.
- The document is published into a public workspace, the user is a member of that workspace with the “Add Content” workspace privilege enabled, and the user trying to delete the document is the owner.
- The document is published into a public workspace that has the “Delete Content” or “Manage Workspace” permission enabled, and the user trying to delete the document is not the owner.

Use this object to query the latest version of a document in a workspace.
When you delete a document, all versions of that document are deleted, including ratings, comments, and tags.
You cannot create a document directly in the API. You can create a new version which automatically creates a parent document record. When adding a new version of the document, you must specify an existing ContentDocumentId which initiates the revision process for the document. When the latest version is published, the title, owner, and publish status fields are updated in the document.
Once the document record exists, it cannot be updated. Updates must be performed on the latest version of the document. The document inherits the updates from the latest version.
You cannot create, edit, or delete content packs via the API.
Note
Content metadata, such as tags, custom fields, and content owners are tracked at the version level rather than at the document level.
If you query versions in the API, versions with a PublishStatus of Upload Interrupted are not returned.
