How to get all dictionaries for a vault using API.

M. nav Jul 6, 2015 5:49 AM

I want to know is there any way to get all dictionaries for a vault using API.

I can access them using sql (select * from Dictionaries ) table but cant find a way to do same from API.

don't want to use sql connection string and ask user for db credentials.

any help ?

Thanks

I see no API function to list the dictionaries in a vault. You can write a report using your query and allow the user to run it, but without knowing your intentions this may not help.

    The EPDM Report Generator allows you to write reports that will display information in a columnar page which can be viewed and saved as a CSV file for Excel. The data for the report is generated from a SQL query. There is information about this in the Administration Guide.
    
    If the dropdown is on a EPDM data card, why not use a card list from SQL database?

        Sorry but I see no way to do that either.
