Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n

A repository connector<\/strong> is a link between INO cx and an external storage space, allowing files to be saved outside INO cx servers. By default, files are stored within INO cx, but they can also be stored on a repository connector or only on it.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n

Using a repository connector is optional and serves several purposes. Some companies must store their recordings on their own servers for regulatory reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Files that can be stored on a repository connector come from the following features: voice mailbox, q<\/strong>ueue, <\/strong>IVR recorder, v<\/strong>oice campaigns, s<\/strong>cheduled reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Creating a new repository connector<\/h2>\n

Repository connectors are configured in the Maker<\/strong>, under the Data<\/strong> module, in the Repository connectors<\/strong> submodule.<\/p>\n\n

                2. Granting access permissions<\/h2>\n

                Prerequisites<\/h3>\n

                Users must have the appropriate permissions in Maker<\/strong>, in the Role:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                • \n

                  Maker<\/strong>: Access to voice mailboxes, queues, IVR recorders, and voice campaigns.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                • \n

                  Reporter<\/strong>: Access to explorations.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  User must also have the right to access repository connectors in the Role.<\/p>\n

                  Assigning the connector to modules<\/h3>\n

                  Once all this has been set up in the Maker, in the repository connectors sub-module, you’ll need to add the rights to access the recordings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • Voice mailbox<\/b>: In Maker, go to Toolbox > Voice Mailbox<\/b>. When creating or editing a voice mailbox, select the repository connector from the dropdown menu.<\/li>\n
                  • Queue<\/b>: In Maker, go to Routing > Queues<\/b>, select the queue, then go to Settings > Processing > Recordings<\/b> and choose the appropriate repository connector.<\/li>\n
                  • IVR recorder<\/b>: In Maker, go to Toolbox > IVR Recorders<\/b>. When creating or editing an IVR recorder, select the repository connector from the dropdown menu.<\/li>\n
                  • Voice campaign<\/b>: In Maker, go to Campaigns > Voice campaigns<\/b>, open the campaign settings, then navigate to Processing > Recording<\/b> and choose the repository connector.<\/li>\n
                  • Scheduled report<\/b>: In Reporter, go to Explorations > Scheduled Reports<\/b>, select a scheduled report, and choose the repository connector.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    Notes<\/b>: Ensure that the correct repository connector is selected to avoid misdirected storage. If a repository connector is not available in the dropdown, verify that it has been created and is active.<\/em><\/p>\n

                    \u00a0<\/div>\n

                    3. Accessing file upload history<\/h2>\n

                    Once created, open the repository connector to view the history of uploaded files.<\/p>\n

                    Note<\/b>: Files will only appear in the history if they were also stored on INO cx.<\/em><\/p>\n

                    Available tabs<\/h3>\n

                    The history is organized by:<\/p>\n
