Connecting to the WebDav folder to customize Heritage Process Portal (deprecated)
You can use web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) to make and deploy customized login pages and banners to Heritage Process Portal. WebDAV provides a network protocol for creating interoperable, collaborative applications.
Before you begin
Various third-party clients are available that support the WebDAV protocol. Try your preferred client to determine its usability.
- In the administrative console, open the Global security page by clicking .
- Expand Web and SIP security and click General settings.
- Make sure that Default to basic authentication is selected. Then click OK and save the configuration.
- Restart the server to apply changes.
About this task
By default, Business Automation Workflow blocks HTTP requests with methods other than GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, HEAD, and OPTIONS. A WebDAV connection also uses the methods PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, MOVE, LOCK, and UNLOCK. These methods need to be added to the allowlist as described for the ProcessServer.AllowedHttpMethods property in the topic Security-hardening properties. It is recommended that you enable these particular HTTP methods only temporarily while modifying the theme.
Procedure
Regardless of the WebDav client that you use, ensure that you configure the client to use the HTTP/SSL protocol. In addition, include the following information in the configuration settings.
