About FileNet P8 WebDAV security
The FileNet P8 WebDAV Servlet leverages the authentication provided by Workplace XT. When a user connects to Workplace XT using a WebDAV client, a login page is displayed and the user is required to provide a valid user name and password.
The following information provides notes for security that affects documents and folders:
Folders
- Folders within an object store that are marked as "hidden" folders are not visible to WebDAV clients.
Documents
- When you rename a document in , you must have Modify Properties access rights to the folder in which the document resides. You cannot rename the document if you do not have that access right to the folder.
- Documents that do not contain content elements are hidden from WebDAV clients.
- Documents moved within object stores retain property and version data.
- Documents cannot be moved across object stores.
- Documents with certain FileNet MIME types are hidden from WebDAV clients.
