Configuring Argus Bridge for document management

Integrate the document management system to be used with Oracle Argus Safety by configuring the details in Console. By default, Documentum is supported out of the box. Any other document management system can be integrated through the API adapter.

You can access Bridge Configuration from Console > System Configuration > Webservice. This menu is visible only if you belong to groups with access set to Enabled on the Webservice screen in Console > Access Management > Argus > Groups > Menus > Webservice.

To configure the Webservice for integration with any Document Management System:

  1. Go to Console > System Configuration > Webservice > Bridge Configuration.
  2. In the Service Assembly section, enter the following parameters:
    1. In the Service drop down, select Document Management.
    2. In the Class Name field, enter the class name available in the DLL.

      Note:

      See the Sample DLL file for documentum integration.
    3. In the Assembly File field, select the DLL file created for the Document Management System.

      Note:

      To use the default documentum class name, leave the Class Name and Assembly File fields blank.
    4. In the Configuration JSON File, upload the configuration file for any system: documentum or other. Before uploading the JSON file, replace the following parameters with your required values:
      • {SERVER_URL}
      • {SERVER_PORT}
      • {THIRD_PARTY_REPO}
      • {USERNAME}
      • {PASSWORD}
      • {CABINET_ID} with {category}

      The sample tags mentioned here are applicable if you are using the default document adapter for documentum. If you are using any other system, then the JSON file may differ according to the custom adapter.

    5. In the Service Status field, status of the Document Management System appears as:
      • Not configured
      • Configured
      • Argus Safety API Load Balancer URL is not configured

        Note:

        You can configure the API Load Balancer URL option in the default enterprise. For more information, see Configuring Network Settings.

    Note:

    These settings are applied at global level and not enterprise specific.
