Working with Office documents on your iPad and saving them directly in IBM Connections with File Jockey

Marten Vosmer posted this on April, 2013

Working with office documents on your iPad and saving them directly in IBM Connections is easy with Pages, Numbers or Keynotes combined with File Jockey.

To show you how this works, we’ve installed File Jockey onto one of our own cloud servers, freely accessible with your free IBM Greenhouse account. If you don't have an IBM Greenhouse account, create one, it is free!

For the purposes of this walk through we will use Pages, but the same applies for Numbers and Keynote.

Open or install the Pages app on your iPad

Opening a Word file from IBM Connections Greenhouse

Setup Cloud services for WebDAV in Pages by pressing this + icon, select Copy from WebDAV

For the Address enter https://greenc.lialis.com for IBM Greenhouse Connections, or https://greenq.lialis.com for IBM Greenhouse Quickr. Enter your Greenhouse user name and password and press the link button. For the purposes of this walk through, I’m assuming you’re using IBM Connections, the same applies for Quickr.

File Jockey is the missing link between mobile device and IBM. We have written several other manuals in using apps combined with File Jockey and IBM Connections and Quickr.
