Using Web Author with Alfresco, SharePoint On-Premise, FileNet
Oxygen XML Web Author includes a generic CMIS connector plugin that enables you to connect Web Author to various types of content management platforms (such as Alfresco, SharePoint, or FileNet) and access files stored on those platforms. To connect and access the files, it is assumed that the CMIS plugin is enabled and configured in your installation of Oxygen XML Web Author.
Opening or Creating Files
To open a file or create a new file, go to the main Dashboard, click the tab that corresponds to your type of CMIS (for example, FileNet), and log in. To create a new document, click on New in the top-right corner.
To open an existing document, browse for the file and double-click it (or tap on a mobile device). If your plugin integration was configured with the Check-out required option selected, the file will be opened the Web Author editor in read-only mode. To edit it, you need to check it out by using the Check Out action from the toolbar drop-down menu that corresponds to your type of CMIS (for example, FileNet). When you check out a file, it is locked and other users cannot edit it in Web Author. To save a modified file, use the Check In action from that drop-down menu and choose between Major version or Minor version. When you check in a modified file, it is switched to read-only mode in your editor and it is unlocked for other users. You can also use the Discard Check Out action from the drop-down menu to cancel the check-out and unlock the file for others.
