Hi,
I'm new to Aras. I'm trying to get a list of who can access/view/update... a Part or Document... from a Java application. I can login and retrieve items using SOAP messages. Does anyone have any pointer or suggestion as to how to go about it?
Your help is appreciated.
J.

I just found out a way to get the info. by sending AML queries to the InnovatorServer.aspx to traverse the relationships using AML.
Is there any better/more efficient way to do it?
Your suggestion is appreciated.

No. There isn't another way to do it. All communications with the Aras server are through AML queries.
Depending on what you are doing at the Java end you may want to consider writing Server Methods in Innovator that are called as a result of your AML message to do the work and return an AML result to you via the SOAP message.
Cheers,
Brian.

Thank you for the answer. We are trying to keep the work performed on the Java end instead of Innovator.
However, I'll weight the benefits of both approaches in our particular situation.
Thanks.
