63 Connecting to WebCenter Content
In this section, you will connect WebCenter Sites to WebCenter Content and specify which renditions (determined in “Determining Which Renditions to Synchronize” in Administering Oracle WebCenter Sites) must be available for use in the attribute mapping part of the connector rules.
To connect to WebCenter Content
-
From the Connector Admin tab, select Configuration to open the Connector Configuration form.
-
In the Connector Configuration form, fill in the following fields:
-
In the Server URL field, provide the address of the WebCenter Content instance to connect to. The HTTP, HTTPS, or IDC protocols can be used. For more information about determining the URL path of a WebCenter Content instance, see Administering Oracle WebCenter Content
-
In the Server User field, provide the name of a user with administration privileges for the WebCenter Content instance.
Note:
If you specified the IDC protocol in the Server URL field, then you must define the user name as that of a local user with administrative privileges (by default, sysadmin).
-
In the Server Password field, provide a password for the administrative user only if you specified an HTTP or HTTPS connection in the Server URL field.
Note:
For IDC connections, a server password is not required. The IDC protocol uses a trusted port configured on the WebCenter Content server.
-
In the Rendition Names field, add the names of all renditions you plan to import (as determined in “Determining Which Renditions to Synchronize” in Administering Oracle WebCenter Sites).
To add a rendition, click Add New Rendition and enter its name. If you add a video rendition, use a colon-separated format such as
