The Root Object
The root object in enaio® coLab is the object on the basis of which a project room was set up in enaio® (see Creating Project Rooms). These can be folders and registers in the enaio® filing system that have been activated for a coLab project. All other objects below the root object in the enaio® filing system – which can be registers and files – are mirrored in the coLab project room. Likewise, all files added from the local file system in the project room are mirrored in the enaio® filing system.
Root objects are not highlighted in enaio®. To find the root object of a project room in enaio®, proceed as follows:
