How to access “nsf file” if Lotus notes not installed on your machine?

Question

Currently i can access nsf all nsg files.But once i uninstall Lotus Notes form my machine program doesn't work.

I am using "Introp.Domino.dll". Language: C#

Answer 1

I did this a long time ago, and if I remember it correctly it's not possible to use the Introp.Domino.dll without the Notes client installed.

A solution is to parse the xml returned when you add the " ?ReadViewEntries " to the nsf url.

youdominoserver/names.nsf?ReadViewEntries 

Good luck,

Answer 2

If you don't have Lotus Notes installed then the only way to get access is to connect to a Domino server. There a couple of ways (if using C#).

HTTP Examples.

server/database.nsf/viewName?readviewentries
server/database.nsf/viewName?readviewentries&OutputFormat=JSON
server/database.nsf/viewName/docname?OpenDocument 
server/database.nsf/agentName?OpenAgent&variable=xxx

docName above would be the value of column 1 in the view for that item. You can also access using the UNID of each item. More examples on the Domino wiki.

Web Services

Domino 7.x and later supports Web Service providers. 8.x supports Providers and consumers. Example.

server/database.nsf/webService?WSDL 
server/database.nsf/webService?OpenWebService
