Anybody?

This is not possible.

Only option is to copy files to DW.

We are currently exploring an option in DW10 to create your own file providers so that you can make a folder called /Files/Digizuite and then under that folder have subfolder and files coming from anoher ressource than DWs file system. But that is not yet production ready.

Hi Adrian,

Currently, there is no good way to make files from an external system available in the DynamicWeb. While you would be able to show them, you would not be able to use/select them.

We have been working on something that will solve this issue, but depending on your timeline, it may not be feasible. We're creating a virtulized file system that abstracts file access and would allow you to make files available by implementing a provider. However, it's still being worked on. We expect it to be released later this year, hopefully during the first half of 2025, though I cannot guarantee that.

Hi guys,

Thank you very much for the responses. I was afraid about this :)

I am preparing a bid on a project and their specific requirement was to support this integration.
I know that other systems already have a way to override the storage for media files, I was hoping that DW10 will have something similar.

Fingers crossed :)

Thank you,
Adrian
