public javax.ws.rs.core.Response getWorkItem(String uniqueid,
                                             String items)

returns a singel workitem defined by $uniqueid

Parameters:: uniqueid -
Returns:

postFormWorkitem
```
public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postFormWorkitem(InputStream requestBodyStream)
```
This method expects a form post and processes the WorkItem by the WorkflowService EJB. After the workItem was processed the method redirect the request to the provided action URI. The action URI can also be computed by the Imixs Workflow ResutlPlugin

Parameters:

requestBodyStream - - form content

action - - return URI

Returns:

postXMLWorkitem
```
public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postXMLWorkitem(org.imixs.workflow.xml.XMLItemCollection xmlworkitem)
```
This method post a ItemCollection object to be processed by the WorkflowManager. The method test for the properties $processid and $activityid NOTE!! - this method did not update an existing instance of a workItem. The behavior is different to the method putWorkitem(). It need to be discussed if the behavior is wrong or not.

Parameters:

workitem - - new workItem data

putXMLWorkitem

public javax.ws.rs.core.Response putXMLWorkitem(org.imixs.workflow.xml.XMLItemCollection workitem)

postXMLWorkitemByUniqueID

public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postXMLWorkitemByUniqueID(String uniqueid,
                                                           org.imixs.workflow.xml.XMLItemCollection xmlworkitem)

postJSONWorkitem
```
public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postJSONWorkitem(InputStream requestBodyStream,

                                                  String encoding)
```
This method expects a form post and processes the WorkItem by the WorkflowService EJB. The Method returns a JSON object with the new data. If a processException Occurs the method returns a JSON object with the error code The JSON result is computed by the service because JSON is not standardized and differs between different jax-rs implementations. For that reason it can not be directly re-converted XMLItemCollection generated by this method Output format: ... value":{"@type":"xs:int","$":"10"}

Parameters:

requestBodyStream - - form content

Returns:

JSON object

Throws:

Exception

postJSONWorkitemByUniqueID

public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postJSONWorkitemByUniqueID(String uniqueid,
                                                            InputStream requestBodyStream,

postWorkitems_XML
```
public javax.ws.rs.core.Response postWorkitems_XML(org.imixs.workflow.xml.DocumentCollection worklist)
```
This method post a collection of ItemCollection objects to be processed by the WorkflowManager.

Parameters:

worklist - - workitem list data

putWorkitems_XML

public javax.ws.rs.core.Response putWorkitems_XML(org.imixs.workflow.xml.DocumentCollection worklist)

parseWorkitem
```
public static final org.imixs.workflow.ItemCollection parseWorkitem(InputStream requestBodyStream)
```
This method expects a form post. The method parses the input stream to extract the provides field/value pairs. NOTE: The method did not(!) assume that the put/post request contains a complete workItem. For this reason the method loads the existing instance of the corresponding workItem (identified by the $uniqueid) and adds the values provided by the put/post request into the existing instance. The following kind of lines which can be included in the InputStream will be skipped ------------------------------1a26f3661ff7 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="query" Connection: keep-alive Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------195571638125373 Content-Length: 5680 -----------------------------195571638125373

Parameters:

requestBodyStream -

Returns:

a workitem
