Process a Section
Like content items, retrieved section records are embedded in Atom entry resources as Viz Data Format (VDF) payload documents:
<vdf:payload xmlns:vdf="http://www.vizrt.com/types" model="http://host-ip-address/webservice/escenic/publication/publication-id/model/com.escenic.section"> <vdf:field name="com.escenic.sectionName"> <vdf:value>Examples</vdf:value> </vdf:field> <vdf:field name="com.escenic.uniqueName"> <vdf:value>ece_examples</vdf:value> </vdf:field> ...[elements omitted]... </vdf:payload>
As for content items, the root element of the payload document has a
model
attribute that contains a reference to a VDF
model document. This document contains a schema defining the structure
and content of the payload document. That is, it tells you what fields
the payload document may contain, how they are organized and what data
types they contain. Your client can therefore download this model
document and use it as a guide to processing the contents of the payload
document.
