IBM Connections API Profile Tags - how do i add a tag that has spaces as well as setting a tag type

  1. I've been trying to pass this over and it seems like it's automatically splitting "Two-word Term" into two categories namely "Two-word" and "Term". I tried to change the space to %20 and it still doesn't work.

  2. How do i set the tag type through the API? It seems like adding snx:type="tag_type" doesn't work.

    <atom:category term="TAG_TERM" snx:frequency="TAG_FREQUENCY" snx:type="TAG_TYPE"></atom:category>

Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • That's correct, It's working as it's designed out of the box. http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/lcwiki.nsf/xpDocViewer.xsp?lookupName=Using+IBM+Connections+4.5+Documentation#action=openDocument&res_title=Understanding_profile_tags_ic45&content=pdcontent

    There are a couple things you can do:

    1 - URL Encode the tags. TWO-TERM TAG -> TWO-TERM%20TAG

    2 - I also see SPACE commonly translated to + signs

    3 - Open a PMR to find out if you can get support for multiple term tags. It's not in the default docs.
