<p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>I need to programatically create content (both pages based on template and web contents) on my Liferay 7.4 instance.</p> <p>Basically I need to implement in Liferay a scheduled task which every night will fetch data from an external database and:</p> <ol> <li>Create a web content by filling the fields of the underlying structure</li> <li>Create a page using a specific template (it could be both a content page or a widget page) </li></ol> <p>Is this possible?</p> <p>Can you suggest me the best way to do that and/or provide some hints about which Liferay API I should use?</p> <p> </p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Pietro</p>
