Hello Community,

I am working with IBM FileNet CMIS and need to retrieve multiple file contents in a single request. Currently, I am using getContentStream to fetch file content, but it only supports one file per request.

What I Have Tried:

1. CMIS Query (SELECT cmis:objectId, cmis:name FROM cmis:document WHERE IN_FOLDER('xyz'))

   • This helps fetch multiple file object IDs, but I still need to call getContentStream separately for each file.

2. Parallel Requests for getContentStream

   • This works, but I am looking for a way to get multiple file contents in one request to optimize performance.

3. Custom Web Service Approach

   • Considering a middleware solution (e.g., IBM API Connect) to batch requests, but wondering if there's a built-in CMIS method for this.

My Question:

• Is there a native way in CMIS/FileNet to retrieve multiple file contents in a single request?
• Does FileNet CMIS support MTOM/XOP batch retrieval for multiple files?
• Any best practices or recommendations for handling bulk content retrieval efficiently?

Appreciate any insights
