(already posted this to StackExchange, but no one seems to be able to help, so reposting here)
As per the Domino Data Service API, I should be able to update a rich text field if the data is in format
FieldName: { contentType: 'text/html', data: newData, type: 'richtext' }
(serialized to JSON, of course)
But what happens is that the original RT field gets replaced by three MIME Part fields (with the same name, containing what you'd expect, "Content-Type: multipart/mixed", "boundary" and so on), and "newData" gets stored in a $FILE attachment (if it's large enough, otherwise the content is stored in the second MIME Part field, separated by "boundary" as one would expect). And also few MIME-specific fields get added to the document ($MIMETrack, $NoteHasNativeMIME, MIME_Version).
My guess is that maybe the server (8.5.3 UP1) does the conversion, but I've been unable to find a relevant setting. Or perhaps the problem is elsewhere. Has anyone else been able to update an RT field using Domino Data Service?
EDIT: upon further inspection, this seems to be a configuration issue. I tried doing a GET from a document with an RT field (that contains the text "testing rt field", submitted via a regular web form), the expected result would be according to the API
"FieldName": {
"contentType":"text/html",
"data":"testing rt field",
"type":"richtext"
}
but instead what is returned is
"FieldName": {
"type":"multipart",
"content": [
{
"contentType":"multipart\/alternative; Boundary=\"0__=4DBB0A82DFA47A268f9e8a93df938690918c4DBB0A82DFA47A26\"",
"contentDisposition":"inline"
},
{
"contentType":"text\/plain; charset=US-ASCII",
"data":"testing rt field",
"boundary":"--0__=4DBB0A82DFA47A268f9e8a93df938690918c4DBB0A82DFA47A26"
},
{
"contentType":"text\/html; charset=US-ASCII",
"contentDisposition":"inline",
"data":"<html><body><font size=\"2\" face=\"sans-serif\">testing rt field<\/font><\/body><\/html>",
"boundary":"--0__=4DBB0A82DFA47A268f9e8a93df938690918c4DBB0A82DFA47A26"
}
]
}
(sorry for the formatting)
So I'm guessing there is a problem with our Domino configuration somewhere. Where, I have no idea, any tips would be greatly appreciated.
