Preconditions:

  • Actor has already logged into ALEX system
  • Actor has opened Content and Media through the My Sakai dashboard


 

Flow Of Events:

Step

Actor

ALEX Interface/TBD Systems

Standard Case

1 (screenshot below)

 

Displays list of directories and files for the default repository and directory


2 (screenshot below)

Selects appropriate server/repository from "Filter by repository" list

 


3

 

Returns list of directories and files that user has access to within that repository

Postconditions:

The repository selected becomes the default for all associated user actions in the Content and Media space until an alternate repository is selected, until a user leaves Content and Media to enter another site, or until log-out


 

Business Rules

The default repository and directory should be the NYU Files user owned root Xythos directory if accessed through the Content and Media section of ALEX



 

The default repository and directory should be the NYU Files site-specific directory if accessed through the WYSIWYG Add Content dialog box.


 






Some items to note about these particular wireframes:

  • They try to stay true to the existing R&D framework where possible
  • NYU Files (Xythos) is the default repository for file storage here; however several other file storage or file management repositories are slated to be integrated.
