Folder Explorer

Folder Explorer (Estructura de carpetas) is the tree view of the document repositories. Use it to browse folders, find documents by location, and work inside a case's document structure.

Browse the tree

  1. Open Estructura de carpetas.
  2. Select a repository.
  3. Expand folders to reach the level you need.
  4. Open a folder to see its documents.

The tree supports deep hierarchies. Large folders load lazily.

Views

Switch between:

  • List view
  • Icon view
  • Gallery view

The view controls which details appear and how previews are shown.

Search inside the explorer

  • Use the folder search to find a folder or document in the current repository.
  • Search modes are configurable by an administrator.
  • Use the BPM case search to find a case and its documents.

Work with documents

From the explorer you can:

  • open a document in the document panel;
  • preview a document;
  • open the version gallery;
  • open the folder metadata form;
  • upload documents to a BPM case, when you have the case-upload permission.

Special folders

  • Container folders group documents stored in subfolders.
  • Fixed or placeholder folders represent empty or migrated cases.
  • Restricted repositories are hidden unless you have the restricted-access permission.
  • Internal taxonomy can hide system repositories and groups from configuration screens.

Permissions

  • explorador:ver — browse the explorer.
  • documento:ver_restringidos — see restricted repositories.
  • bpm_ingesta:subir_caso — upload documents to a BPM case.
  • configuracion:editar — rebuild the explorer index or clear its cache.

An embedded BPM session can be read-only; in that mode, upload and edit actions are blocked.
