6.1 About the Integration Hierarchy
The integration hierarchy provides a tree-like structure that enables you to interact with content servers and the files on them in a convenient, familiar environment
Figure 6–1 . It is fully integrated into Windows Explorer and supported e-mail
applications Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes. It is generally not available in Microsoft Office applications, where you use menus, toolbars, and ribbons to work
with content servers and their files.
If you do not see the folders pane in Windows Explorer or your e-mail application, you need to turn it on. For example, in Windows XP, choose View, then Explorer Bar,
and then Folders. Also, you may need to enable the integration hierarchy in your e-mail application as it is not displayed by default see
Section 5.6, Showing or Hiding the Oracle Content Servers Hierarchy
.

Figure 6–1 Example of Integration Hierarchy Fully Expanded
You work with content managed on a content server in much the same way you do with other folders and files on your computer. You can copy files, drag and drop files
into folders, right-click objects to open context menus see Section 6.7, Context
Menus , and so on. However, some tasks typically performed on files or folders on
your local computer may have a somewhat different effect when performed on files and folders managed by a content server. For example, copying a file or saving an
e-mail message to a contribution folder does not put it on your local computer, but rather uploads and saves it on the content server. In addition, the context menus of
files may include items specific to content management, such as Check In, Check Out, Copy Links, and so on. For more information, see
Chapter 8, Working With Content Folders and Files.
The user logins and security controls on a content server also apply to files and folders that are managed through the integration hierarchy. For example, if you have only
read permission for a content item, you will be able to open a copy of the native file, but you will not be able to check a new revision of the file in to the content server
which requires write permission. Similarly, when you create a new folder in the folder hierarchy on the server, each person who has the rights to view that folder will
see it on their local computer. The files you add to the folder will also be available to each user on the content server, again according to their security permissions.
