TeamBinder Connector 12.13

# View

The `View` action retrieves a single document and returns it.

    http://host:port/action=View
                      [&Config=<Base64_Config>]
                       &Identifier=Identifier
                      [&NoACI=True/False]
                      [&Override_Config_Parameters=...]

Type: Synchronous

Parameter Name | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
`Config` | A base-64 encoded configuration. The configuration parameters that are set override the same parameters in the connector's configuration file. | No
`Identifier` | The identifier of the document to return. | Yes
`NoACI` | A Boolean value that specifies whether to return just binary content (`true`) instead of returning a normal ACI response with base-64 encoded content (`false`). The default value, `true`, returns binary content. | No
`WithMetadata` | A Boolean value (default `true`) that specifies whether to return metadata in the action response when `NoACI=false`. This parameter has no effect when `NoACI=true`. The view action only returns metadata if the connector supports the `VIEW_WITH_METADATA` feature. | No
`Override_Config_Parameters` | Any other action parameters that you set override settings in the connector's configuration file. For example:
    /action=fetch&fetchaction=...
                 &[Section]Parameter=Value
where `[Section]` (optional) is the name of a configuration file section, `Parameter` is the name of a configuration parameter, and `Value` is the parameter value. | No

## Example

    http://localhost:1234/action=View&Identifier=PGlkIHM9IkRJUjEiIHI9IkM6XEF1dG9ub215XEZpbGVTeXN0ZW1Db25uZWN0b3JDRlNcZGlyMVxmaWxlOC50eHQiLz4%3D

## Response

The response is the binary content of the file, unless you have specified `NoACI=false`.

With `NoACI=false`, the following XML response is returned:

    <autnresponse>
        <action>VIEW</action>
        <response>SUCCESS</response>
        <responsedata>
            <mime-type>application/octet-stream</mime-type>
            <filename>file.txt</filename>
            <content>Base64+encoded+file+content</content>
        </responsedata>
    </autnresponse>

If `NoACI=false` and the connector supports the `VIEW_WITH_METADATA` feature, it also returns document metadata, for example:

    <autnresponse>
      <action>VIEW</action>
      <response>SUCCESS</response>
      <responsedata>
        <reference>C:\file.txt</reference>
        <metadata>
          <CREATED>1499769017</CREATED>
          <FILESIZE>12</FILESIZE>
          <LASTACCESSED>1499769017</LASTACCESSED>
          <LASTCHANGED>1417178089</LASTCHANGED>
          <LASTMODIFIED>1357228211</LASTMODIFIED>
        </metadata>
        <mime-type>application/octet-stream</mime-type>
        <filename>file.txt</filename>
        <content>Base64+encoded+file+content</content>
    </responsedata>

The response includes the following elements:

- `reference` provides the document reference.
- `metadata` provides the metadata associated with the requested document.
- `page` elements (zero or more) provide text content, if the repository stores text alongside the document.
