Website installation

To install the Office Connector (henceforth referred to as "OC"), install an OC the exact same way you would install a Media Manager 5 site (MM).

  • Create a new website folder and copy the content from SWInstall into the created website folder.

Website configuration

The OC has it own appsettings.json file, identical to the appsettings.json file for MM. Some parameters are of particular interest in the OC.

VersionId

Note that the OC does not have a separate entry in the ConfigManager in the DC. If an OC entry exists, it belongs to the old OC and it will not affect the new one.

Instead, the OC uses an MM configuration, which can be found as a child of the Media Manager 5 node in the ConfigManager. The following options are available:

  1. Use an existing MM configuration. If you choose this option, be aware that changing e.g. searches and configuration parameters in the chosen MM configuration will affect the OC
    1. Use this option for new installations
  2. (Recommended by RND) Create a new child configuration for the OC based on the MM configuration. This makes it possible to change e.g. searches and configuration parameters independently of MM.

Create or choose a configuration to use, and then change the "VersionId" parameter in the appsettings.json for the OC appropriately.

SSO

If you want to enable SSO, change "UseFederatedAuthentication" to "true" in the appsettings.json file.
