Revoking access to documents using the web service API

1.	Include project files

•	Create a Microsoft .NET client assembly that consumes the Rights Management WSDL. For information, see Creating a .NET client assembly.

•	Reference the Microsoft .NET client assembly. For information, see Referencing the .NET client assembly.

2.	Create a Rights Management Client API object

Using the Microsoft .NET client assembly, create a RightsManagementServiceService object by invoking its default constructor. Next, set authentication values required to invoke LiveCycle ES.

3.	Retrieve a policy-protected PDF document

•	Create a BLOB object by using its constructor. The BLOB object is used to store a policy-protected PDF document that is revoked.

•	Create a System.IO.FileStream object by invoking its constructor and passing a string value that represents the file location of the policy-protected PDF document to revoke and the mode in which to open the file.

•	Create a byte array that stores the content of the System.IO.FileStream object. You can determine the size of the byte array by getting the System.IO.FileStream object’s Length property.

•	Populate the byte array with stream data by invoking the System.IO.FileStream object’s Read method and passing the byte array, the starting position, and the stream length to read.

•	Populate the BLOB object by assigning its binaryData property with the contents of the byte array.

4.	Revoke the policy-protected document

•	Retrieve the license identifier value of the policy-protected document by invoking the RightsManagementServiceService object’s getLicenseID method and passing the BLOB object that represents the policy-protected document. This method returns a string value that represents the license identifier.

•	Revoke the policy-protected document by invoking the RightsManagementServiceService object’s revokeLicense method and passing the following values:

•	A string value that specifies the license identifier value of the policy-protected document (specify the return value of the RightsManagementServiceService object’s getLicenseId method).

•	A static data member of the Reason enum that specifies the reason to revoke the document. For example, you can specify Reason.DOCUMENT_REVISED.

•	A string value that specifies the URL location to where a revised document is located. If you do not want to redirect a user to another URL, then you can pass null.
