Is it possible to make an AJAX call that has the 'context' of WEM

Migrateduser

Hi,

In v7, there used to be a way to display a popup JSP page that was able to "login" to VCM by using the following methods:

VgnSessionMgr.setupActiveSession(request);
String vcmId = URLAction.getSelectedIdFromRequest(request);
 

Is there an equivalent in v8 when calling a servlet (or something) from, for example, a custom button?

Basically, what I would like to do is have a custom button in the content console grid that executes a servlet that does some WEM stuff and returns JSON back via callback (similar to how the entire UI works).

Thanks,

Eric
