    What

    This document demonstrates how the Virtuoso Conductor User Interface can be used to enable and manage file Versioning in Virtuoso WebDAV folders.

    Why

    Here is a sample scenario for managing resource versions from Virtuoso Conductor:

    2. Log in as dba
    3. Go to Web Application Server



    4. Click Upload</>
    5. Select a file and click the Upload button
      • For example, upload a sample.txt file containing the following text:

    6. As a result, the file will be uploaded.



    7. Click the properties icon of the file, shown in the last column to the right.



    8. In the Properties form, click the Enable VC button.



    9. You can also set Auto Versioning Content to one of the following:

    10. Click the Update button
    11. Click the Edit icon for the uploaded file, shown in the last column to the right.
