Revisions service

This service returns all revisions done to a Knowledge Base. To subscribe to this feed you can use your favorite feed reader, just copy the URL displayed in the RSS Icon next to each Knowledge Base.
For each Knowledge Base the Feed URL is generated as follows:

http://{ServerURL}/SyndicationService.svc/revisions?kb={kbName}[&version={versionName}]

Where:

For example, for the can3 the URL of the RSS feed service is:

http://open.genexusserver.com/xev1/SyndicationService.svc/revisions?kb=GxWiki

If we open the URL with IE we get the feed formatted as follows:

GXServer RSS Revisions

And the actual XML content returned by the service is the following:

Subordinate to the <rss> element is a single <channel> element, which contains information about the channel (metadata) and all its contents. The subordinate items for <channel> are:

  • Title: The name of the channel. It's how the service is referred.
  • Description: a sentence is describing the channel.
  • managingEditor: address of responsible for editorial content.
  • Category:  specifies one or more categories that the channel belongs to.

Where each revision is represented by an item, and each item has the following nodes:

  • Guid: A string that uniquely identifies the item. The guid element has an attribute named "isPermaLink", this value is always false, meaning the guid may not be assumed to be a URL.
  • Author: the user who made the commit operation.
  • Title: the comment included by the user when the commit operation was made.
  • description: a complete description of the operation, including the comment and all the objects related to the commit operation, with its dates and user.
  • pubDate: the date in which the commit operation was made.
  • a10:updated: the post update date. 

From GeneXus IDE you could also get this information using the Team Development History dialog.
