The beauty of the web script framework is that you can design what the URLs look like and how they behave in order to expose content or information. In this case, I've constructed my URLs such that I can request http://yourhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/workflow/status/user.json, which is set up to utilize the JSON freemarker template. If I wanted to, I could add an XML freemarker template, and call http://yourhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/workflow/status/user.xml to invoke it. Build yourself a web script to do something basic, and it'll all become clear. :) Alternatively, take a look at some of the examples: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts_Examples -Brian Hi Nicolas,

Is it automatically handled by alfresco which take the good webscript, or do you have to do special things? Otherwise the project seems very interesting, especially for someone working on an "workflow-based" client and on an reporting app. Can you tell me how you use the parameter for the format : user.[format].
