What is the content type for nonXML objects storing 'binary'

, ,
1

I’m trying to save nonXML data to Tamino. I want to try and save straight binary (for example a gif or jpg file).

The help documentation and samples use the “nonXMLGreeting” sample using ‘text/plain’ content type to save text.

I guess I have 2 questions:

1) What are the various content types that can be defined when creating the nonXMLObject (and where are these defined - I can’t find any info in the API docs).

2) what is the content type to use when saving binary data? I’ve tried “binary” and “Binary”. Neither work.

Thanks.

The contenttype is a standard mime type, which are defined by IANA (www.iana.org). Find a complete list here.
A nice and more practical listing combining file extensions and mime type can be found here.
