Content Manager item identifiers used by TOM.NET

The .NET-based Tridion Object Model (TOM.NET) accepts two types of Content Manager item identifiers: Content Manager URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers) and WebDAV URLs (Uniform Resource Locators).

TOM.NET accepts:

  • both types in the Session.GetObject and Repository.GetObject methods.
  • Content Manager URIs in any parameter that is of type TcmUri, such as all constructor methods of identifiable objects.

The Id property of an identifiable object in the .NET Tridion Object Model (that is, of any item that is derived from the IdentifiableObject class) is always a Content Manager URI (TcmUri object).
