Getting Started
Before any workspace or folder searching can be done, there are a few configurations that need to be made, namely:
Metadata should be mapped to the layouts/forms.
Layouts and forms must be configured.
If working with DeskSite/FileSite or Cloud iManage/Private Cloud/Work 10, CAM commands must be set up.
The search layout(s) must be set up.
Mapping Metadata
Layouts and Forms
Layouts are a key component of the Documents and Workspace tabs, as they determine what fields will be available to a user when navigating CAM’s tabs. The look and behavior of a layout will depend on the Form. When a tenant is first created, the following forms will be automatically loaded:
Matter Profile (Under the Directory tab)
Workspace Search
Warning: Keep in mind that the default layouts/forms for a newly created tenant will not have metadata mapped to them nor users assigned. For a layout to work properly, metadata must be mapped to it and users must be assigned to it.
Learn more about customizing layouts, adding forms, and assigning users to them. Learn more about mapping metadata.
CAM Commands
CAM Commands allow the use of specific functionality of CAM from within DeskSite/FileSite or Cloud iManage/Private Cloud/Work 10.
On Premise Steps to Install
Download the CAM Commands installer using the EXE or MSI of Edge Compatible installer.
Run the installer on premise. (You may have to trust the app and run anyway with the Windows Smartscreen popup.)
Check which commands to enable from the installer.
Once installed, you can open DeskSite or Filesite, and use the right click menu to access the CAM commands.
Registry edits to rename items can be done from the Interwoven registry folder.
Work in the Cloud/Cloud iManage/Private Cloud Steps to Install
Download the iManage Web Extension.
If you are an http://iManage.com customer, this needs to be sent to iManage to upload to your tenant.
If you require a customization to the yaml file before the application is uploaded, make this change first before sending or uploading the zip.
Go to iManage Control Center, Applications, and upload the package.
Follow the steps to Authenticate and Secure the application.
Now you can use the commands in the Web Client.
Learn how to configure CAM Commands in more detail.
Configuring the Search Layout
Configure the content of the search bar (displayed in the top center of the page).
Go to the administration tab.
Click on Layouts.
Click the Edit button in the Actions column against the Search drop-down.
In the Search Configuration window, add information in the provided fields.
Click Save.
Click Add.
Read the detailed steps to configure the search layout.
Searching Workspaces/Folders
Best Practices
Note Service Desk Documents and Workspace searches return a maximum of 5,000 per search. If deciding to do a bulk search/update, you may need to batch out your update to process more than 5,000 records. (This does not apply for CloudiManage).
Lookups in the searches will return a limit of 100 items in the lookup dropdown. If you happen to have more records meeting the criteria in the lookup (e.g. a matter), it is recommended to search directly for that result.
If you plan to process a very large number of records, you may want to utilize a CSV using Data Uploader instead.
API Search
API searches are available for clients under the Manage tier and onwards. API searches mean that through an API, CAM goes directly to the DMS to do the searches. These are lookups that call the DMS in real time and pull that information as if the user were in the DMS searching.
The following are the steps to perform the API search operations:
Go to the Workspace tab. The following screen displays:
