Your WebDAV URLs

OVERVIEW

This article details the public and private URLs you will need to manage your WebDAV space.

 

DETAILS

PRIVATE URL FOR ACCESSING YOUR SPACE

You will be sent you a URL to publish to. It will look like this example:

  • https://webdav.sfu.ca/web/department-name, or
  • http://webdav.sfu.ca/web/department-name

(Use https if possible. If it doesn’t work, use http.)

In your web publishing package, follow the instructions on how to set up a WebDAV site. Specify your URL to publish to. Enter the same username and password that you use to access SFU e-mail. If you are asked to set “Authorization”, set it to Basic.

 

PUBLIC URL FOR VIEWING YOUR PAGES

The URL to give out for public viewing is http://www.sfu.ca/something which the you will be given upon setup of the space. For example:

http://www.sfu.ca/department-name

Notice that the public URL is on the www.sfu.ca server. In contrast, the webdav.sfu.ca URL is for your own publishing purposes only.
