-The WebDAV connections menu lets you configure connections globally and reuse them later. For example, users can later select a WebDAV connection in the workflow action [[Save to WebDAV server>>doc:Formcycle.Designer.Workflow.Actions.SaveToWebDAV]] without having to be aware of the connection details. |
