Quick Tour of the Documents Page

The Documents page provides the tools required to quickly update the settings and permissions for folders and documents that are stored in Oracle Content Management and used in Oracle Integration at runtime.

Note:

The Documents page is available only if an administrator for Oracle Integration created a connection to Oracle Content Management.

In addition, for process applications that were created before a connection to Oracle Content Management was configured, the Documents feature is disabled by default. For these cases, you must manually enable the Documents feature.

Configured Folders and Documents

The Documents page displays information about the folders and documents that have been configured for your process applications.

For each process application that has the Documents feature enabled, Oracle Integration automatically creates the following default folders:

  • Application Folder: This main root folder contains all the process instance folders.

  • Instance Folder: One root folder is created for each process instance. It contains the set of managed folders that have been defined in the design-time environment.

    Note:

    The incoming documents and incoming folders that have been defined in design-time environment aren’t stored in the Instance Folder.
  • Managed Folders: These folders are defined to organize the uploaded files and to set the access level. One managed folder is automatically defined and marked as the Startup folder. The Startup folder is the only folder that’s shown for users to upload documents when starting an application. You can define additional managed folders. All managed folders are created for each process instance.

Select Properties to change the name of the root folders or to specify a different folder as the startup folder.

 

Information Displayed for Each Folder or Document

Each property card includes an icon that indicates whether the definition is for a managed folder ( Managed Folder icon), an incoming folder ( Incoming Folder icon), or an incoming document ( Incoming Document icon).

Each property card also displays the following information:

  • The name of the folder or document. You can click the name to edit the basic properties.

  • A description of the folder or document. If no description was provided, then the card displays the definition type: Managed Folder, Incoming Folder, or Incoming Document.

  • The access type displays the default permission level required to access the folder or document. You can override the default access type at the task level. The available access types are Contributor (default), Downloader, Viewer, or None.
