Hello, 

I am using Windchill 11.1 M010.

I want to get latest revision of a document using Rest API.

 

I tried to use filter,

$filter : latestiteration eq '1',

 

but, this gives "Invalid expression".

 

Is there any way to get the latest revision of a document through Rest API?

I got this tip from one of my Windchill colleagues...

Can you try with

 

"Latest": true

 

instead of latestiteration : 1?

Thanks,

but,

This also doesn't work. It says "Latest" is Invalid property

Hello,

below I am sharing my Javascript code. In this code, I am passing typeID, and properties (attributes),  also in a $filter I am setting criteria, so there I want to set a filter to fetch only latest version documents.

 

var params = {
type: 'GET',
url: me.getRestUrl() + "/structure/objects",
queryParams: {
'$select': properties,

'$filter': "endswith(number ,'"+number+"') and state eq 'Released' ",

'navigationCriteria': navigationCriteria,
'typeId': selectedTypeId,

}
};
// result: JSON
var jsonResult = me.processJSONRequest(params);

 

 

 

 

I tried with,

$filter : "latestIteration eq '1'",

but this displays all the version of a document. eg. A.1 and B.1 and B.2

I only want to fetch the latest i.e B.2

    Try the REST Call/URL here in a browser or your favorite rest client like postman.
