Require some examples of how the DocumentObj 2.5 API in Tridion Docs can be used to retrieve topics

The RWS Tridion Docs(Version SDL Tridion Docs - Content Manager - Build 14.0.4101.2) documentation in the link below states the use of this API, but there is no sample code available to implement the API to fetch topics from the Docs CMS:
https://docs.rws.com/992513/128791/tridion-docs-14-sp4/documentobj-2-5-getobject
So far I have tried the below code, but I am getting encrypted version of the content, as shown below:

            var docClient = new DocumentObjServiceReference.DocumentObjClient(ishWSBinding, new EndpointAddress(docObj25Uri));
            var request = new DocumentObjServiceReference.GetObjectRequest("GUID-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", "3", "en-US", "", "", "");
            
            //Create a channel from the client and inject the token.
            var docObj25Channel = docClient.ChannelFactory.CreateChannelWithIssuedToken(token);
            var xmlDocumentObjectList = docObj25Channel.GetObject(request);

            Console.WriteLine("Version: " + xmlDocumentObjectList.version + "\n");
            Console.WriteLine(xmlDocumentObjectList.xmlObjectList);

Hi Tanushree,

The Tridion Docs API is based on SOAP messages, so Xml handling is key as you probably noticed by now. The CDATA encryption you refer to is actually Base64 encoding. An encoding which only uses basic alphanumerical characters to avoid weird characters (like <, >, !, -, etc) breaking the xml structures. The line of code you need is System.Convert.FromBase64String(...)

For several use cases there is example code on Github, the PowerShell ISHRemote library source code is on https://github.com/RWS/ISHRemote ... The link below is for the Get-IShDocumentObjData cmdlet, so example code on how to download files to the file system.

https://github.com/RWS/ISHRemote/blob/master/Source/ISHRemote/Trisoft.ISHRemote/Cmdlets/DocumentObj/GetIshDocumentObjData.cs#L136

Hope this unblocks you,
Dave

In addition, after converting using System.Convert.FromBase64String(), you then need to do System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetString(), apparently. That should give you the plain text view of the data.
