Speaking of Connect – Explore...

The Explore tab is shown when accessing the Connect application or after defining first-access settings.

This tab is a Connect document explorer featuring document management actions.

Available actions are shown on the top of the window. Namely:

• Download: allows downloading documents from the remote repository;

• Checkin: allows performing document checkin, sending all changes made in the local directory to the remote repository;

• Checkout: allows performing document checkoutfrom the remote repository to locally edit them;

• Synchronize: allows synchronizing the local and remote repositories, obtaining new documents from the local repository, deleting documents from the local repository whenever permissions are removed, and downloading recent document versions, among others;

• Reload: allows reloading the local and remote document structures;

• Preferences: allows defining Connect use preferences. Preference options are defined during the application’s first-access setup, but they can be subsequently edited through this option.

Local repository documents (documents obtained from the remote depository via Connect) are displayed to the left of the window.

The platform’s official and remote repository is displayed to the right of the window. This area shows all documents for which the user has minimum permissions (i.e. documents with at least viewing permission).

The explorer’s footer shows details of the currently viewed folder or document, such as:

• description;

• document file type;

• synchronization status; that is, whether the document is updated based on the official repository;

• version;

• author;

• code;

• creation date.

Documents and folders can be moved through the structure by dragging and dropping.

 

Basic Path

 

01. In the Connect application, click the Explore tab.

02. View local documents, located in the Local chart, and documents posted in the platform repository, located in the Remote chart.

Viewing Remote chart contents is conditioned to the user’s permissions in folders and documents posted in the official platform repository.

 

Alternative Paths

 

Download document

 

01. Select the document to be downloaded from the Remote chart.

02. Click Download, located in the list of actions available on the top of the window.

Documents can also be downloaded in two other ways:

  • through the context menu: by right-clicking the mouse over the document and selecting Download;
  • drag and drop: by selecting the document and dragging it to the desired local repository directory. 

03. View the document in the Local chart.

In the Remote chart, the downloaded document is marked as “(R)”, indicating that such document is also available in the local repository.
