I would like to know, how can we access the components linked to a particular Keyword in SDL Web 8, from our DXA Java web application.

Currently I do not see any field in my WebApp that maps to the component list for any keyword.

I see this link has it detailed for an Array of keywords. Is there anyway to do it for individual keywords.

As getTaxonomyContent takes the following parameters:

  • an array of Keywords

  • a Boolean to include branches (true) of the passed Keywords to
    retrieve content for, otherwise false for only content relating
    directly to the Keyword

  • (optional) an additional Criteria (
    Com.Tridion.Broker.Querying.Criteria.Criteria)

https://docs.sdl.com/LiveContent/content/en-US/SDL%20Web-v5/GUID-AE9E11C7-9B02-4F55-99E2-8E6C69DA8B0F

Any help/suggestion would be really appreciated. TIA.

  • It seems like you have already answered your own question? You have found the API to get classified Components for a given (set of) Keyword(s). Ok, it takes an array of Keywords, but you can create an array containing one item, right?

  • Yes, I can, however, the below line keeps requiring the 'criteria' even though its optional: String[] foundComponentURIS = relationManager.GetTaxonomyContent(selectedKeywords, false, criteria);

  • Is it worth adding your code and the exact error to the example? Maybe there's an issue with the variable criteria itself?

In that documentation link, componentItemType variable should be corrected to criteria

GetTaxonomyContent has following API methods:

    public string[] GetTaxonomyContent(Keyword taxonomyKeyword, bool includeBranches);
    public string[] GetTaxonomyContent(Keyword[] taxonomyKeywords, bool includeBranches);
    public string[] GetTaxonomyContent(Keyword taxonomyKeyword, bool includeBranches, Criteria additionalCriteria);
    public string[] GetTaxonomyContent(Keyword[] taxonomyKeywords, bool includeBranches, Criteria additionalCriteria);

Example with criteria:

int iComponentItemType = 16;
String selectedKeywordURI = "tcm:12-800-1024";
Keyword selectedKeywords;
TaxonomyFactory taxonomyFactory = new TaxonomyFactory();
selectedKeywords = taxonomyFactory.GetTaxonomyKeyword(selectedKeywordURI);
TaxonomyRelationManager relationManager = new TaxonomyRelationManager();
ItemTypeCriteria criteria = new ItemTypeCriteria(iComponentItemType);
String[] foundComponentURIS = relationManager.GetTaxonomyContent(selectedKeywords, true, criteria);

Example without criteria (optional):

String selectedKeywordURI = "tcm:12-800-1024";
Keyword selectedKeywords;
TaxonomyFactory taxonomyFactory = new TaxonomyFactory();
selectedKeywords = taxonomyFactory.GetTaxonomyKeyword(selectedKeywordURI);
TaxonomyRelationManager relationManager = new TaxonomyRelationManager();
String[] foundItemsURIS = relationManager.GetTaxonomyContent(selectedKeywords, true);

I hope it helps.
