WebDAV (BETA)

Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) is a set of methods - based on the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) - that allows collaboration between users when editing and managing documents or other files stored on World Wide Web servers. The WebDAV module in activeCollab is used to give access to activeCollab projects, categories and files in the Files module through a WebDAV client. Some common WebDAV clients are OSX Finder, Windows Explorer, Filezilla and Transit.

The WebDAV Module enables you to easily manage files:

• see the folder structure of your projects;
• view categories within a project;
• manage files placed in each category.

All files can be easily moved, deleted or uploaded to your edition of activeCollab in this way. The permissions of each file within the project will also be copied to the WebDAV client so that only people who are authorized to manage files, or see private files in your system, will be able to do so using the WebDAV client.
