Cosmo Feed Service: Entry Point

The URIs used to access the Atom collections exposing a user's collections and account data are listed in an APP service document. The URI for this document follows the template /atom/user/{username}. The URI can also be found in the CMP user service document as the User URI with title atom.

All URIs in the service document may be specified relative to the document's xml:base URI.

Workspaces

The service document contains two workspaces, one for content collections and one for account data.

Home Workspace

The atom:title of this workspace is home. It includes a collection for each of the collections published into the user's home collection (excluding sub-collections). The atom:title of a collection is the display name for the corresponding content collection. The collection does not contain an accept, indicating that only Atom entries representing note items can be created or updated within that Atom collection; direct media creation and update are not allowed.

Account Workspace

The atom:title of this workspace is account. It includes the following collection elements:

• That with atom:title of subscribed represents the user's collection subscriptions
• That with atom:title of preferences represents the user's preferences

No accept is specified, indicating that media creation and update are not allowed.
