Request Navigation Menu via External Reference Code

We enabled navigation menus to be retrieved using their External Reference Code (ERC) through Liferay’s headless APIs. This enhancement enables a more precise and consistent identification of navigation menus across sites and environments, particularly useful in multi-site and content migration contexts. It complements the existing functionality by providing an alternative for IDs.

Key benefits:

  • Improved data consistency: ERC-based retrieval ensures references remain valid across environments.
  • Easier data migration: ERCs streamline the export/import process across different Liferay sites by providing a consistent identifier.
  • Better filtering options: Admins can now export navigation menus based on creation or modification date range, giving finer control over headless operations.

Status: Release Flag (opt-in)
