Hi Ann,

Yes you can query the repository for this using the API layer.

Using the Publication 2.5 Containing function ( https://docs.rws.com/801922/345692/sdl-tridion-docs-13-sp2/publicationoutput-2-5-containing ) you can retrieve the list of all publications which have the object GUID / object Version combination in the associated baseline.

So following the flow as suggested below will give you all publication (versions) regardless the version of the content object:

1/ Query for all versions of the content object ( https://docs.rws.com/801922/345426/sdl-tridion-docs-13-sp2/documentobj-2-5-retrieveversionmetadata )

2/ For each version found in query of step 1

2.1/ Execute the Publication 2.5 Containing function using the combination of the specific version number and the GUID of the content object

2.2/ From the returned result set (containing the Publication versions which contain the content object GUID / Content object Version combination) from query in step 2.1, build a collection of publication versions.

You do not need to look at the language level as the usage is driven through the baseline which is linking the GUID and version as used in one to many publication versions.
You could off course check which FISHPUBLNGCOMBINATIONS have been published if you want to know which languages are used by the publication outputs.

I hope this helps.

Kind Regards,

Raf

Thanks for your reply Raf. Sorry, I should have clarified my question better. I am looking to know if this information is retrievable via the UI of SDL Tridion Docs and/or Publication Manager without having to call the API?

Ann

Hi Ann,

Publication manager will do this for the version currently selected. So the 'where used' option Object > Where Used from the menubar.
This will not list it for all other versions of the object. It is just looking into the current object version from the baseline.

Off course you could select from the version selection area each version and copy out the retrieved list of publications and combine them in a local dataset yourself.

The tool is not supporting you in doing this automatically for all available versions.

Kind Regards,

Raf
