SharePoint items crawled into the portal are represented as standard portal folders and documents, and can be viewed and accessed like any other document that has been imported into the portal. The SharePoint crawler does apply some special properties to SharePoint items to help differentiate them from other items.

If the crawler was set to mirror folder structure of the SharePoint site, each SharePoint site is represented as a folder with the prefix [Site], differentiating folders representing SharePoint sites from folders representing SharePoint list types. Each [Site] folder contains subfolders for each list type found on that SharePoint site. For example, all documents in the SharePoint Crawler site are located in the Shared Documents folder under the [Site] SharePoint Crawler site folder.
