IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2            

Navigate object stores

Once you have configured Windows Explorer to map a web folder to the Workplace XT server, you can navigate through an object store to view and use the folders in Workplace XT. For example, you can copy a document from a local folder into a folder in an object store.

Documents, folders, and other objects must be filed in an object store folder in order to be visible to WebDAV. Parent documents that are directly filed in the root-level of an object store are not visible in Workplace XT or in WebDAV clients like Windows Explorer and Microsoft Word. All of the folders in the object store will be displayed but the underlying documents will not.

To navigate through object store contents:

  1. From the client workstation, double-click My Network Places.
  2. Double-click your WebDAV content on server_name icon that was created when you configured Windows Explorer.
  3. Once the Network Place opens, a list of available object stores will be displayed. Double-click the object store name you want to work with.
  4. Once the selected object store opens, a list of available objects (other objects, folders, or files) will be displayed. Double-click the object name you want to work with.
