Repository Manager¶

When you log into the remote storage platform, you are presented with the contents of the target repository and are able to navigate the folder structure or search for resources that need to be edited using the specialized editors that JasperReports Web Studio offers.

Folders and files can be created, edited, or removed, just like in any file system like a repository. To upload a file or folder, click the New button and select Upload File or Upload Folder. The menu also contains the following options:

• New Report

• New Data Adapter

• New Folder

  The following actions are available from the context menu, when you right-click on the name of a file or folder:

• Delete deletes the resource permanently.

• Download downloads the resource.

• Resource Information shows detailed information about the resource such as name, description, mime, ID, type, path, size, Created Date, Last Modified Date, and permissions. With the required permissions and if the repository allows, you can change the name or description.

To open a file, click the file name.

Upload and Download Files and Folders¶

To download a file or a folder, use the right-click context menu on the resource, and select the Download menu item. Folders are saved as zip files.

In the New menu on the upper-right, depending on permissions and possibility to create a resource, there are two menu items:

• Upload

• Upload Folder

These options allow you to upload files or folders into the repository.

Resource Information¶

In the Resource Information dialog, you can view the resource information and permissions. In the case of some special objects, like repositories, additional information like, available space and limits can be viewed too.

The Resource Permissions enables users to manage access to repository resources by granting, modifying, or removing permissions. Users can share resources, assign specific permission levels, and view authorized users.

The Permissions dialog provides search capabilities to locate users and supports immediate updates to access settings.
