Tridion Docs Architectural Runway Update plus latest ISHRemote news and example scripts (TXS2021)

Hi all,

The technology heavy virtual conference called Tridion Experience Summit (TXS2021) is in progress. I believe you can still register on https://www.rws.com/TXS2021/ albeit to make sure that you are on the mailing list for the next one. The recordings will stick around there for 60 days, so I was told. Once I have the proper deep link, I will update this post, videos starting with "TXS 2021" on https://community.rws.com/product-groups/tridion/tridion-docs/m/videos 

This blog post is to highlight the architectural session regarding Tridion Docs (formerly known as Trisoft InfoShare, LiveContent Architect, Knowledge Center) with a focus on the API - SOAP and REST flavoured.
Besides that an update of what is already available in ISHRemote v0.14 and a hands on explanation on the plans forward for ISHRemote as posted on https://community.rws.com/product-groups/tridion/tridion-docs/b/weblog/posts/automating-on-tridion-docs---the-plan-of-ishremote-v7-0 

Below the example code I demo'd during this webinar.

Besides this session titled "Sneak previews along the way to modernized architecture in Tridion Docs" I would also highlight:

  1. Future proof your content with Semantic AI in Tridion
  2. Prioritizing developers with upcoming new OpenAPI in Tridion Docs
  3. Keeping track of organization-wide comments in Review Space
  4. Streamlining deployment and automating business tasks with Tridion Docs

Enjoy the holidays!
