In addition to hosting your Web Archive on a web server or in a shared network folder, you can also host the archive in SharePoint. In order to do so, the HTML and JSON file extensions in your archive will need to be changed to ASPX and JS extensions respectively. Once the file extensions have been changed, you can upload the archive to SharePoint and share the URL to the index.aspx file with the end-users. Change the file extensionsTo change the file extensions automatically, you can use a built-in agent in your Seascape database. Open the Actions menu, and click Admin > Upload Web Viewer to SharePoint: Next, select the root folder of the archive that you wish to update and click Open: The agent will now start updating the file extensions in your archive (if needed, you can view the agent's progress using the Java Debug console in Notes). After the agent is finished, open your archive folder and verify that the extensions have been updated correctly: Upload your archive to SharePointYou can now upload the Web Archive to a SharePoint library, and share the URL to the index.aspx file with your users. Note: You can't use the SharePoint upload utility to upload web viewer to the Sharepoint. 1. Drag & dropIf archive is not big you can upload it by simply dragging & dropping the entire root folder or the archive into SharePoint document library. 2. OneDrive syncIf you are working with huge archives it's recommended to use OneDrive for business to sync root folder of your archive with the SharePoint document library. Create a new document library and click Sync button: Your browser will request permission to open OneDrive, confirm that is okay. If you are not logged in with your business account you will need to enter your credentials. OneDrive will create a new subfolder folder in %userprofile%\<Company Name> with the name of document library and will open it in Windows Explorer. Move or copy entire root folder of your archive to this folder and it will sync automatically with your SharePoint document library. Open your archive in SharePointImportant: In order for the aspx files to open in the web browser (as opposed to downloading as a normal file) the person who uploads the archive to SharePoint must have at least the “Design” permission or “Add and Customize Pages” site permission assigned. This permission is required only for the user who is uploading the archive—all other users will be able to view the aspx files in their web browser regardless of their respective permission level. |
