What is the CV Locate Node Action?

The CV Locate Node Action opens (launches) the Contentverse Client to the Node specified (Cabinet, Drawer, Folder, etc).

Creating a CV Locate Node Action

Select the CV Locate Node Action from the Actions list to display the Action Builder.

Enter the Room name () that corresponds to the Contentverse Repository/Room that you would like this Action to be performed against.  This would be the Contentverse Room where the Contentverse node (Cabinet, Drawer, or Folder) you want to open is located.  The Room can be entered as a static value or the value can contain dynamic data such as a field or variable.  The following is an example of a Room in Contentverse:

Note: Room names are case sensitive and must match the Contentverse Room name as listed in the Contentverse System (i.e. as seen in the Contentverse Client).  In most cases, the Room name will be entered directly into the Room field and will be permanent when creating the action.  If a dynamic method is used to populate the Room field in instances when multiple rooms are used, be sure the case and Room name are exact.

Enter the Node () to be opened in the Contentverse Client. Use the following syntax:

Contentverse_CabinetName/Contentverse_DrawerName/Contentverse_FolderName

Note: The Contentverse Client will launch when this Action is executed regardless of whether the node exists or not.

The Node can consist of any of the following:

  • • Cabinet
  • • Cabinet/Drawer
  • • Cabinet/Drawer/Folder
  • • Cabinet/Drawer/Folder/Subfolder

This information can be static or dynamically populated based on fields or variables.  Again, this data is case sensitive.

 

Tip: If the Contentverse Navigator/Filing structure is tied to values in a given target application, the Node value can be dynamically generated.  For instance, in an accounting application, if the Contentverse Cabinet is named Accounts_Payable, the Drawer is the invoice year, and the folder is the vendor name, you can make a portion of the field static (Accounts_Payable/) and the remainder dynamic based on fields captured from the target accounting application screen.  In this example, the entry could resemble:
Accounts_Payable/[%AcctApp_InvoiceYear]/[%AcctApp_Vendor]
Where [%AcctApp_InvoiceYear] and [%AcctApp_Vendor] are variables holding data captured from the accounting application screen being viewed when the action was initiated.  This will allow you to automatically launch a Vendor Folder in Contentverse from the respective Account Application screen.

Click the OK button to save the Action.
