Hello Mario, If the ECM Centera reporitory is remote to the pdm-system, there is no doubt you will want to use slide's webdav client API. You could use ECM Centera API if the pdm-system would be in the same app server, but since you prefer to use the webdav protocol as interface to the repository (I would too, if communication overhead isn't very critical), slide's webdav client API is still the way to go.

The simplest way we wanne start is that a user of the pdm-system push a button (label like "Archive Construction") which starts a workflow (collecting physical file of the construction(s) and collect + save all metadatas in an xml-file). Both we want to transmit into the archive (e.g. EMC's Centera - if you know about that). The archive system does support WebDAV too, and now we (better I) try to evaluate if its generally possible to send this data with WebDAV-protocoll and now I'm right on this point. It is possible, and it is also the best way, because WebDAV is very abstract (so that we are able to connect to any other system too) and its a common standard, so that we dont need a proprietary implementation (which is better for our customers and better for our sales to argue :-) ). And now I'm still at this point to get the simplest way to send the data due to webdav-protocoll. In my opinion I would say very, very simplified that we only have to send a request!? So I dont need special functionallity which comes with Slide, the core functions of webdav are already enough for us. (Error and user handling will be done in the pdm-system) I hope you understood my bad english... and you can help me once more.
