Adding a Trisoft Mount

About this task

When you set up a mount in WorldServer, you are making a connection to an existing Trisoft configuration. You need to match the configuration and status values in Trisoft for your WorldServer workflow to operate correctly.

Before you create the WorldServer mount, go to your Trisoft Status Transition Management page. Identify the following information, which will be needed for your WorldServer mount configuration.
  • Trisoft user roles
  • Trisoft status names
The following example shows the user roles and status names for one Trisoft configuration.


Procedure

  1. Log in to your WorldServer system.
  2. On the Management > Asset Interface System > AIS Mounts page, click Add.
    WorldServer displays the Mount: New page.
  3. In the Generic Configuration area
    1. Supply a descriptive name.
    2. From the Type list, select Trisoft.
  4. Specify the properties described in the following table:
    Property Type Description
    Protocol Drop-down list The protocol used to connect to the Trisoft server, either HTTP or HTTPS
    Server Name Text field Hostname or IP address of the Trisoft server
    Port Text field Port on which the Trisoft server listens.
    Note: If the default port is used, this field may be left empty.
    Application Name Text field Application name used when installing and configuring the Trisoft server.
    Note: The default name is InfoShareAuthor.
    Username Text field User name for WorldServer to use when it connects to the Trisoft server. This name must match a valid name identified on the Trisoft Status Transition Management page. WorldServer performs all Trisoft operations as this user, which must have privileges to modify all content being processed by WorldServer.
    Password Text field Password for the Trisoft user specified above.
    Allowed Target Statuses Text field Comma-separated list of the allowed values of Trisoft status of the target content. Default statuses are To be translated, In translation, and Translated. This list must match valid status names identified on the Trisoft Status Transition Management page. The list may contain any number of entries; the maximum length is 255 characters.
    Locale Mappings Drop-down lists For each target language, select the language specified in the Trisoft server, and the corresponding WorldServer locale. WorldServer populates these lists with the languages specified in the Trisoft server for translation, and the locales configured in WorldServer. You can add as many locale mappings as you need.
  5. Click Save.

Results

WorldServer returns to the refreshed Management > Asset Interface System > AIS Mounts page. In the WorldServer Explorer, you can now view your mount and content whose target assets have one of the status values specified in Allowed Target Statuses.
