Hi, If I got it right, you're asking if Jackrabbit already has a feature to retrieve a node given an UUID, instead of a path, once the entity you mention keeps a list of UUIDs to know which documents are associated to it. I believe Jackrabbit has no such feature, and I think you should consider Alexander's suggestion and store the paths instead of the UUIDs in your entity. If for some reason you must keep using UUIDs, a servlet which retrieves the UUID, resolves the correponding node and does a redirect to its path should not be very complicated to implement.
