how do you upload multiple files?

[Former Member]

Hi,

This is propably an easy one.

I am trying to upload multiple .gif files to a folder in KM.

I went to Content Management -> KM Content and created a new folder inside a sub-folder.

Now when I click on the contect menu I select New.. and then Upload...

However, this only allows me to select for upload one file at a time.

I neeed to upload about 50 files. It will take ages doing this one by one!

Is there a quicker way?

Hi

Multiple upload of files is possible by using WEBDAV protocol.To use this follow the below steps.

Go to folder to which u want to upload the files and the click on the context menu and select details.A new window will open up.In that select settings->properties->accesslinks.copy the WEBDAV link shown there.

Now

click My Network Places on your desktop, and choose Tools from the top menu bar/Map Network Drive from the context menu. If you donu2019t find My Network Places on your desktop you can find it under Windows Start menu option on your computer.

select Sign up for online storage or connect to a network server. Click next

Highlight Choose another network locations. Click next

Use Cntrl+V to paste the URL path name(webdav URL). Click next

Change the URL location to the name of the folder in KM. Hit next. Hit finish

A folder by the name you just created will appear under my network places on your explorer application.

Using this u can upload multiple files directly into folder u want.

Hope this solves ur problem.

Hi,

You can access KM folder directly using this url http://host:port/irj/go/km/docs then copy all the files from local disk and paste in KM folder.

Clarifying: both use the same protocol (WebDAV), these are just different client applications.
