Tree View
The tree view contains tabs for browsing the folder structure and for searching.
At the top, the root directory name (server name) is visible.
The root directory contains all available Source Connectors (profiles) on this specific FSI Server, listed below the root directory.
The following source connector types are possible within the root directory:
Static:
for static files only, e.g. style graphics you want to use on your website.
Storage:
images will be imported to the storage for high performance Single Source
Imaging.
Multi Resolution:
profile contains multi resolution TIFF files only.
New source connectors can be configured manually by editing the XML configuration files in webapps/fsi/CONFIG. Here also the administrative privileges (read only, write, etc.) and user profiles can be defined.
You can read more about this in the Configuration section of the FSI Server Online Manual.
It is possible to determine different permissions for each folder (Read, Write, List, Tasks). The set permissions for the currently selected folder can be viewed via More information... at the bottom of the tree view.
It is also possible for the administrator to define customized comments (e.g. what kind of files are recommended to be placed into a certain folder) for each source connector type, which will show up at the bottom of the tree view. These comments can be defined via an XML file.
Folder Tab
Below the root directory, the following built-in folders exist:
Favorite Folder:
Contains shortcuts to folders which are marked as favorites by the user.
Downloads:
Contains downloads created by the user. By using the context menu, you can cancel
or restart the download job, download a selected item, or delete items.
The root directory also contains the following fixed profiles:
FSI Viewer:
Here all config data which is needed for the FSI Viewer software is stored.
Profile type: Static (you can upload XML files for your FSI
Viewer here)

On the bottom of the tree view the type of the selected folder is visible (Name of folder, Source Connector Types: Storage, Static or Multi Resolution) as well as the permissions overview (via More information...) and the total amount of images contained in the selected source connector.
Search Tab
The search tab allows you to find files on the server which match certain criteria.
At the top you can find a simple text input.
By typing keywords into the text input you can search for items which have matching keywords in any data field.
Alternatively, you can set up your search criteria using the search conditions below the input:
- Use the checkbox located directly under the input to limit the search to the current selected directory
- Use the checkbox to include or exclude a search condition
- Choose the desired data field of the condition
- Choose whether a condition should be equal or unequal. Some fields additionally offer the option to comparatively search items (less than, greater than).
- Enter the value for the search condition
To add another condition click the "Add Condition" button at the bottom right. To remove conditions, click the "x" button at the top right of each condition. Note that using multiple conditions you can define each condition as mandatory or optional. alternatively means that the condition extends the range of possibly matched items. mandatory usually reduces the range of possibly matched items.
Example
| Condition 1 | Condition 2 |
|---|---|
mandatory | alternatively |
field: File Suffix | field: File Size |
equal | less than |
value: .jpg | value: 550kb |
These conditions will return all files with a .jpg file suffix and additionally all files less than 550 kb in size. Switching Condition 2 to mandatory would return all files with a .jpg file suffix that are additionally less than 550 kb in size.
