Federated content element

A federated content element stores a reference to federated content such as IBM Content Manager content.

A federated content element can:

• Display federated content within a presentation template, component design or element design.

• Display a link to federated content within a presentation template, component design or element design.

• Display attributes of federated content within a presentation template, component design or element design.

To create a federated content element, you can either add a federated content element to an authoring template, site, site area or content item, or create a component reference component.

Web Content Management can not create or edit federated content. Refer to the documentation of your federated content source for information on creating and editing federated content.

• Federated content data source configuration

  To use the federated content component, first configure your Web Content Management Server to link to a federated data source. Only one federated data source can be used per Web content server.
