Hi Eduard, thanks for your quick answer. Using the REST resource works fine, thanks a lot. For future work I have one question left. I read the tutorial for creating an own component, but it is not clear to me how to use an component as a service, so that an external application can access it. e.g. that I would have an own url for this new component, like for the REST API. So I would be able to call an url like xwiki/myApi instead of xwiki/rest or xwiki/xmlrpc/confluence. Is it possible to create something like this?

Hi Sven,
There actually is a REST resource for querying pages with a given tag. Check out the documentation on the REST API page [1]. The resource is:
/wikis/{wikiName}/tags/{tag1}[,{tag2},{tag3}...][?start=offset&number=n]
which returns: "The list of pages having the specified tags." [1]
Regarding your other questions, if they are still valid, check out the documentation on creating XWiki Components [2] and on creating new(custom) REST resources [3] that extend the REST API.
Thanks, Eduard

Hi, I would like to access my XWiki from an external web service. The web service would send a tag to XWiki and then receive links to all pages which are tagged with the given tag. I looked at the REST-API and the XMLRPC-API but I couldn't find a way to do the task with these apis. Now i am thinking about writing my own component which would query the tag plugin and then return the results in some way. My question is how can I make a component accessible from outside Xwiki? Is there an easy way to enhance the REST or XML-RCP components or is it possible to use an script on a wikipage to forward a get-request with its paramter to the component? Is there a best practice for tasks like this?
Thanks a lot& Kind Regards, Sven _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
