Dear all experts,

I need to export posting programmatically based on the posting status.
(i.e. published postings with effective publishing datetime.)
I am looking at the SDAPI for the export object. However, it seems only
support channel-based export and only published posting (including the
approval-and-future-publishing datetime)

Best regards,
Andy

Hi Andy,

that is correct.
MCMS does not provide this functionality for the site deployment API.

SDAPI by design only allows incremental Site Deployment - not a deployment
of specific objects.
Specific objects can only be exported using Site Manager

Cheers,
Stefan

Dear Stefan,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Do you have any suggested implementation on deployment of specific
objects?

I was thinking to develop a specific program, which specifically copy
the Postings object including the content, from Back-end CMS to
Front-end CMS. However, I doubt the flesibility and maturity of this
approach. I have to promatically maintain the posting states, both at
front-end and back-end and keep they are consistent. Also, I have no
way to update the "deployed" flag in backend CMS when I copied a
specific posting. And this results in giving up SDAPI as the flag is no
longer updated. Please advise.

Best regards,
Andy

Hi Andy,

you need to update the posting (e.g. set a property).
Then the posting will be deployed the next time - but also all other updated
postings in the selected channel (or child channels).

As indicated: it is not possible to deploy only specific objects using
SDAPI. The design of MCMS does not allow it.

Cheers,
Stefan
