#### Description

In Sakai, you can copy a file from your local system to your My Workspace or class resources using the Add button in the Resources tool. If you want to copy several files or an entire folder all at once, software called WebDAV can be used to drag files or folders from your local computer to or from the Resources folder in Sakai.

Several setup steps are required to make your computer aware of Sakai so it will treat the Sakai Resources folder as another folder on your computer. Once you have set up a particular Sakai class or group resource folder using WebDAV, you can drag files and folders to the class or group Resource area from your local computer and vice versa. Please note that these connections are specific to the computer you are using, so if you change computers you will have to set up the connection again.

#### Your SiteID

Each Sakai site has a Site ID. The SiteID for this site is listed above. You need to know the Site ID because it will be part of the address you will need to connect via WebDAV. Each site must be set up as a separate WebDAV connection, so the first time you connect to a given site, you will need to follow the directions below.

#### Setting up WebDAV for Windows

Note: There must be at least one object (file, folder etc.) in the group or class resource area before you begin the setup procedure. This procedure needs to be done once for each site in Sakai before you can use WebDAV to transfer files to and from any one site.

1. Click on the My Network Places icon on your PC desktop to open the Network Places folder
2. Click on the Add Network Place icon
3. Click Next
4. Click on the bottom choice: "Choose another network"
5. Click Next
6. In the "Location of the Network Place" field, type the URL for this site shown above.
7. Click Next
   Note: If you receive an alert such as "The folder youíve entered does not appear to be valid," it could be there are no resources yet in your site. Go to the site and add a file to initialize the Resources folder, then return to Step 1.
8. When asked for your username and password, enter your Sakai username and your password
9. Enter a name for the project or class resources you are adding. This name is used on your computer when referencing the class or project resource folder.
10. Click "Finish" to complete the set up.
11. When the setup is complete, the class or project resources folder will appear in your My Workplaces as a folder. It will also show up under My Network Places in Windows Explorer, where it will act just like any other folder in Windows Explorer.
12. You can now drag files and folders to and from your computer and the Sakai Resources folder.
13. Enter a name for the group or class resources you are adding. This name is used on your system when referencing the class or group resource folder.
14. Click the button to complete the setup.
