Load app config

The application configuration is shared across all publications and drives the behavior of LiveContent at a global level. This API call grants read access to the values set in that configuration block.

Example API call

/servlets3/wietmsd?date=1460457696417&target=interface&action=config_item&item_name=app.skin_name

Parameters

ParameterDescription
targetinterface
actionconfig_item
item_nameThe name of the configuration item to retrieve, such as app.skin_name would retrieve the value of the <configitem name="app.skin_name" /> configuration element.
idA session ID that was retrieved with or without a specific collection and publication combination
dateTo prevent browser-side caching of data, especially with AJAX requests, it is important to make a URL unique. The most effective technique to accomplish this is to include a time parameter that is based on the time at which the call is made.
