In some cases it may be of interest to distribute Offline Viewer with no documents, e.g. to save local space and reduce synchronization time. This can be achieved by setting up permissions on documents and data to control what information shall be included in Offline Viewer installation and in synchronization. A method to enable parts data to be included in Offline Viewer and in synchronizations and documents to be excluded use permissions according to: - Define permissions "online" and "offline" in permissions.config.
- On parts data, eg catalogues, part assemblies and parts set no permission, leave it blank. This will make the parts information to be included in all publications.
- On documents set permission "online". This will ensure documents are only included in publications which are defined to include "online"
- On the Offline publication and on the Synchronize publication in the publication repository select "offline" as a permission to be included at publish. This will ensure data marked with "offline" or not marked at all to be included in the publication process.
- On other publications, ensure to add "online" on the publications otherwise documents will not be included in these publications.
If all documents shall be excluded from Offline Viewer, it is possible to set the permission "online" on the presentation type Documents. |
