The Endeca WorkbenchContentSource uses a store factory to retrieve promoted content. There are two store factory types: com.endeca.infront.content.source.EcrStoreFactory, which supports the direct method, and com.endeca.infront.content.source.FileStoreFactory, which supports the file-based method. If no store factory is specified, the WorkbenchContentSource creates an instance of EcrStoreFactory.

This section describes how to configure your ATG server instance to use the file-based promote content method. The configuration required differs depending on whether your Endeca environment uses a single MDEX engine or multiple MDEX engines.
