Hi,

We want to write properties into a datalist but are having difficulty populating the fields using a java program.

We're trying to add DataList items into a Event List (built-in type of data list) that we created manually on the Alfresco site. we are able to set the value for property 'Description' on the item being added to my list using the Java code below, but not able to set 'Title' or 'Location' properties on it. Have tried retrieving the newly created item and updating the properties, but that does not work either. Could someone please suggest how to work this out. Please note that my list is not a custom data list.

Thanks
Dev

Hi, I've managed to update most properties except the 'Title' using code below. I could not find any relevant property for 'Title' in the data model xml file for title. can someone please suggest. Thanks.

<java>
                properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, "D:dl:event,P:cm:attachable,P:cm:titled");
           properties.put("dl:eventLocation","test-Location-"+var_name_extension);
           properties.put("dl:eventStartDate",new Date());
           properties.put("dl:eventEndDate",new Date());
           properties.put("dl:eventRegistrations","team developers");
           properties.put("dl:eventNote","starts at 9 am");
</java>
