Creating a Content Filter

1. In My webMethods: Navigate > Applications > Administration > System-Wide > Content Configurator.

2. Available servers can be selected in the Content Service Platform Server list. This is a list of the Content Service Platform server environments you defined as described in Configuring a Content Service Platform Environment.

The content filters configured for the selected server appear in the Content Service Platform Filter list, with the most recently created filters at the top of the list. Click the Filter Name column title to sort the list. If no filters are configured for the selected server, the list will be empty. To create a new filter, click Add Filter.

3. On the next page, select a content server in the Server Selector list. This is a list of the content service platform server environments you defined as described in Configuring a Content Service Platform Environment; the filter you are creating applies to content on the selected server.

4. In the Content Service Platform Filter Information panel, type a name and a description of the filter you are creating. For clarity, choose a name that indicates the filter’s intended use or the content it exposes. For example, in the description, include the document types you intend the filter to make available.

6. In the Content Hierarchy panel, expand the Content Hierarchy tree view if it is not already expanded. You can limit the number of entries displayed in the tree by typing text in the Filter List field and clicking Go; only document types that contain matching text will be displayed in the tree view.

7. In the tree view, select the check boxes for the content nodes you want the filter to make available. Non-selected nodes will not be visible to the filter user.

9. On the Content Filter Configuration Summary page, review and verify the configuration you have entered for this filter. If you want to make any changes, click Previous to return to the appropriate page.

10. Click Finish to add the filter to the list of available content filters. The new filter is added to the top of the list on the Content Service Platform Filters panel.
