WebDAV Connector
The WebDAV Connector enables you to access an instance of the Content Manager from a client machine and to navigate and use Publications and folders in the Content Manager as folders in a file system.
You can use WebDAV with Content Manager to view binary files contained inside Multimedia Components, and you can use WebDAV in external applications that supports WebDAV to access Publications, Folders and items contained in Folders such as Components, Schemas, Multimedia Components and Templates.
For example, using WebDAV you can use Windows Explorer to access Content Manager Publications and their Folder:
You can add, edit, delete, and move these items as if they were part of a normal Windows file system. You can open them in external applications, edit content, and save the edited items back to the Content Manager. You can also create new Multimedia Components by dragging and dropping content to a Folder on the Content Manager WebDAV server.
In addition, you can use WebDAV from Content Manager Explorer, the Web interface to the Content Manager, to open binary files inside Multimedia Components.
