WebDAV allows users to access Confluence content via a WebDAV client, such as 'My Network Places' in Microsoft Windows. Provided that the user has permission, they will be able to read and write to spaces, pages and attachments in Confluence. They will be asked to log in, and the standard Confluence permissions apply.
On the 'WebDav Configuration' page, you can:
- allow/disallow specific actions on pages and attachments via WebDAV. The configurable actions are: create/move, edit and delete.
- enable/disable access to specific virtual files/folders.
To configure WebDAV options for pages and attachments ,
Go to the 'Administration Console' view. To do this:
- Go to a page in the space and choose 'Administration' from the 'User' menu, which is labelled with your Confluence username. The 'Administration Console' view will open.
- Click 'WebDav Configuration' under 'Configuration' in the left panel. The 'WebDAV Configuration' page is displayed.
- Check or uncheck the options in the 'Permissions' section as required.
- Check or uncheck the options in the 'Virtual Files and Folders' section as required.
- Click the 'Save' button.
