Standard WebDAV Server

The default WebDAV server (aka: Simple Server) is a DAV 1,2 and DeltaV compliant WebDAV server implementation. It offers a file-based view to the JCR repository, suitable for everybody looking for standard WebDAV functionality. Essentially, the contents of the underlying content repository are exposed as a hierarchical collection of files and folders.

Access the content repository

Use the following URL to access the content repository in your WebDAV client:

The server asks for authentication and will accept credentials for the default admin user: admin/admin. You can modify this security policy in the repository configuration file.

To access other workspace than the default one, replace the last part of the URL (/default/) with the name of another workspace.

You can also search the default workspace.

File system access

Many operating systems, including Windows and Mac OS X, allow you to "mount" a WebDAV server as a shared network disk. You can use the above URL to make the default workspace available as such a network disk, after which you can use normal file system tools to copy files and folders to and from the content repository.
