#File System

Before managing File System content, you need to make the following preparations:

1. Register agents – You need to register agents to establish connections between AvePoint Opus and your File System server. For detailed instructions, refer to API for Connector.

2. Register Agents.

3. Create connections – You need to create connection groups as containers of connections and create connections to browse the structure. For detailed instructions, refer to Configure Connections.

4. Storage locations – If you want to archive the content to an archival storage, you need to configure storage locations to store the archived content. For detailed instructions, refer to Manage Your Storage.

To manage File System content, you need to perform the following operations in order:

1. Configure term settings on a tree node to choose how to classify the File System content.

2. Run a Content synchronization for search job to synchronize content from File System to AvePoint Opus and apply the configured term settings at the same time. Therefore, rules associated with the configured terms will be applied to the content.

3. Run an Enforce rule actions job to enforce rule actions on content to manage the content.
