With the list command it is possible to publish one or more files to Catenda.

One file

If you want to publish a single file to Catenda, the easiest way to do so is by clicking on Publish to Catenda in the hamburger menu of the file.

Multiple files

If you wish to publish multiple files to Catenda you will have to select the files you wish to publish. After your files in SharePoint, users will be able to see a Publish to Catenda list command.

If there is not enough space in the command bar you might see the command in the hamburger menu.

After clicking on Publish to Catenda the following menu will open that can look something like this:

If you have not given SharePoint access to your Catenda account yet you will see a dialogue in SharePoint that can look something like this:

See below for how to authorize your account.

Selecting a folder

If you have granted access to your Catenda account you can select the project, library and the destination folder on Catenda, and publish.

The view of the folder structure in SharePoint is consistent with the view in Catenda.

If a document with the same name as your file does not exist yet in the folder you are publishing, it will appear as a new document in Catenda.

If the file you are publishing has the same name as a document in the folder you are publishing it to, the file will be a new revision to that document.

After a file is published, users will be able to move, rename and delete the file.
​Catenda Access required: Full access, usually given to users like the publisher or an administrator
Changing the file on Catenda does not change anything on SharePoint. Likewise, if the file changes on SharePoint, nothing changes on Catenda.

With this application you add the Catenda webpart to a page on your sit. You can let users browse the areas that they have read access to in the document section of a Catenda project. If the have write access to any part of the document structure they will also be able to upload files there.

This is what a configured webpart can look like:

An authentication window to authorize your account will pop up. You might have to allow popup windows in your browser for this to work.

If you are not already logged in, you will be asked to log into Catenda in this window.

If you do not already have one, you can create a Catenda Account here.

The authentication window can look something like this:

By allowing the app access to your account you will be able to publish documents from SharePoint to any part of your Catenda project(s) that you have write access to in the document section.

If a webpart has been added to a page on your site you will also be able to see all documents you have read access to in the Catenda project that was configured by the person that added the webpart. With the webpart you will also be able to publish documents from your system to any part of the configured Catenda project that you have write access to in the document section.

If you no longer wish to give the app access to your Catenda account, you can always revoke the access on the applications page of your Catenda account.
