Adding Content

You can use the VMP Administrator to add new content that can be made available to client devices.

  1. Open the VMP Administrator application and select Content > My Content.
  2. If you are adding content to an existing folder, or as a child of an existing content instance, click to highlight the folder or instance.
  3. Click Open to open the New Content view.
  4. Click to highlight the document type and click Browse to select the new document.
    Note: The Name field contains the document name, and it auto-populates based on the selected document. If you enter a name in the Name field, it will persist.
  5. If the document resides on a network that requires credentials, use the Network login and Network password fields to enter the credentials.
  6. Optionally, you can select Map network document. Mapping allows you to configure automatic synchronization for document updates. If desired, select this option and configure a synchronization interval.
    Note: If your documents reside on a remote network, automatic synchronization will not work unless the Vocera Data Exchange service is modified to use a local administrator account instead of the default VMP Local System account.
  7. If the document type you have selected is Word document or HTML document, the Document style dropdown list appears. Select the document style to use.
  8. If the document type you have selected is Word document, Excel document, or HTML document, the Use first tables row as column names dropdown list appears. Select one of the following:
    • Yes - Use the entries in the first row of the table as the column names.
    • No - Do not use table row entries as column names.
    • Use parent folder settings - Use the settings specified in the parent folder.
  9. In the Options section, select Insert as a root node to insert the new document into the My Content folder, or select Insert as a child to selected node to insert the new document into the selected folder.
  10. Click OK to close the dialog and upload the document to the server.
