Integrating HCL Connections files
To integrate files with your portal, register the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) entry points with the WP FederatedDocumentsService resource environment provider. After this configuration is complete, content authors insert links to documents hosted on the HCL Connections server. Using personalization, authors can also render inventories of folders that are hosted in files.
Authors can use the generic CMIS file picker dialog, in the HCL Web Content Manager rich text editor, to insert links to documents hosted on HCL Connections files. Authors can also use the personalization component in Web Content Manager to render inventories of folders on the HCL Connections server.

HCL Connections Files offers a set of CMIS service documents that provide specific views of the content that is stored in files. Determine which CMIS API service document URL you need before starting the configuration. - Set up predefined HCL Connections servers
Configuring integration with files is similar to configuring other federated documents. You must specify the remote server URL, a display name, and the supported interface type of the remote server. - Configure federated documents feature for files
