Field

Description

Required

Display as

Enter the display name for the connection. If you will be creating multiple connections, ensure the name readily identifies the connection. The name displays in the application, and you can use it to search for the connection and filter lists.

If you do not add a display name, the connection will automatically be named using the CMIS URL. For example, Documentum (http://XX.XX.XX.XXX:XXXX/emc-cmis/resources). If it will be useful for you to reference the connection by the URL, you should use the default name. 

Optional

CMIS URL

Enter the URL for the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) server.

Required

User name

Enter the username that should be used to log on to the server. This needs to be an account with permissions to access the content that will be processed.

Required

Password

Enter the password for the username added in the previous field.

Required

Repository

Enter the Documentum repository name.

Required

Item Type

Enter the item type that should be assigned to uploaded items. For example, cmis:document.

Optional

Secondary Item Types

Enter the secondary item types that should be applied. This is a comma or semicolon delimited list of item types for properties being retained as metadata. This is user defined and will vary by instance.

Optional

Agent URL

Enter the URL for the computer where the Documentum agent is installed. The Documentum agent provides access to additional functionality. This is an optional entry, but DryvIQ uses the entry to determine if additional features should be turned on for the connection. If this field is populated, DryvIQ turns on the additional features; if it is blank, DryvIQ assumes the agent is not being used and doesn’t turn on the additional features. See Documentum Agent under Features and Limitations for more information about the features enabled through the Documentum agent.

Optional

Lifecycle

Enter the lifecycle state that should be applied to the document when it is created. The DryvIQ extension module must be installed to use this option.
