Use ARIS document storage with WebDAV

ARIS document storage supports WebDAV. You can connect only one tenant with a specific repository.

To grant users without the Document management role access to ARIS document storage content, ARIS document storage can be used as a WebDAV network drive.

With a Microsoft® Windows 7 operating system you just need to connect the relevant network and access ARIS document storage directly. With older operating systems, you need to use Web folders (select Tools > Map Network Drive > Sign up for online storage connect to a network server in Microsoft® Windows Explorer). If this does not work you need to configure your computer as follows.

Procedure

  1. Open the Registry Editor.
  2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters and find the DWORD entry BasicAuthLevel.
  3. Check if the value of this entry is 2. If the value of this entry differs, please change it to 2. If the DWORD entry does not exist, create it.
  4. With operating systems older than Microsoft® Windows 7 you also need to find the DWORD entry UseBasicAuth. If it does not exist, create it.
  5. Change the value of this entry to the hexadecimal value 1. Thus, you enable HTTP Basic Access Authentication for SSL and non-SSL connections.
  6. Close the Registry Editor.
  7. Restart Microsoft® Windows.

You can now use ARIS document storage as a WebDAV network drive.
