Community associations and APIs | HCL Digital Experience
Although community associations are typically managed through the portal user interface, you might want to access the associations programmatically.
For example, a portlet on a specific page might need to communicate
with a community in HCL Connections that is
associated with the page. For this type of access, the content mapping
service supports several APIs:
- Java API
- REST API
- Portal Scripting Interface
- XML configuration interface (xmlaccess command)
The content mapping service provides general access to associations of portal resources with
other types of resources. Associations to resources of different types are grouped together and
separated from one another by scopes. Community associations are managed
in the ibm.connections
scope.
