CMIS - change nuxeo:lifecycleState

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I'm trying to modify the nuxeo:lifecycleState via a CMIS statement: curl ...
/> -F "cmisaction:update"
/> -F "changeToken=..."
/> -F "propertyId[0]=nuxeo:lifecycleState"
/> -F "propertyValue[0]="approved"
/> "https:..."

It's not erroring. But it's not changing the lifecycle state. Should this be working? (P.S. We use CMIS extensively to modify other document properties as part of testing.) Thank you.

nuxeo:lifecycleState is a read-only property, as you'll see if you query the CMIS types. To change the lifecycle state you need to use non-CMIS methods of interaction with the Nuxeo native APIs. For example use the Nuxeo Automation APIs and call the Document.FollowLifecycleTransition operation.
