Content Transfer Archive Link and sap viewer

[Former Member]

Hello,

I configured archive link to view attached documents with the sap viewer via HTTP. The document is stored in a external Content management system. When I try to retrieve a document, the sap system genereates a request to my external archive server. The server sends a response back to sap. But will the content directly go from the archive server to the sap viewer application or will the content travel to the sap server and then to the client pc? For example: the sap server is in australia, the client PC in the USA and also the repository and archive server is in the USA. Will the content travel to australia and then back to the client PC in the usa?

Thanks,

Nicole

Hi Nicole,

As far as i know when you create a document in you Content server SAP creates a link to that document, When your frontend request a document, SAP forward you to that link and SAPviewer retrieve the info directly from the Content server to the frontend.

Hope this help!

Hi Juan,

yes thank you, this is very helpful.

But do you know if there are different possibilities to configure the Frontend communication(direct content server communication and communication over sap server)?

Hi Nicloe,

Yes we can directly hit it. But think about the security issues. Basically,I don't suggest that.
