Hi, Using: So you could have params like: name = $doc.documentReference (or $doc.fullName) title = $doc.title creator = $doc.creatorReference hasAdmin = $services.authorization.checkAccess(‘ADMIN’, $doc.authorReference)

When providing a new Extension Point the developer must document * the list of parameters he requires. * * @return a map of parameters provided by the extension */ Map<String, String> getParameters(); /** * @return the {@link Block} that must be rendered when this extension is displayed */ Block execute(); } So as you can see there’s no way to return anything else here. However, when you define your UIX you can pass any number of parameters (which are retrieved through calling getParameters() on UIExtension). So you could have params like: name = $doc.documentReference (or $doc.fullName) title = $doc.title creator = $doc.creatorReference hasAdmin = $services.authorization.checkAccess(‘ADMIN’, $doc.authorReference) ...
