BA Insight's NetDocuments connector for search indexes content stored in NetDocuments so that users can effortlessly search and retrieve content directly from within their NetDocuments portal using a single search.

NetDocuments has been the leader in cloud-based document management since 1999, helping firms to reduce costs and increase productivity with enterprise search, built-in disaster recovery, client, matter, and project-centric workspaces, and any time access on a modern platform that scales to both small and large firms alike.

BA Insight's NetDocuments connector for search indexes content stored in NetDocuments so that users can search and retrieve content directly from within their portal. The connector applies document security in NetDocuments to SharePoint Search, Azure Search or Elasticsearch automatically, so user information remains secure. Metadata stored in NetDocuments can be mapped to equivalent terms so that users have a seamless search experience.

Our NetDocuments connector for search:

  • Allows searching for any kind of documents stored in NetDocuments.
  • Operates with minimal impact on NetDocuments.  Once content is crawled, all search activity takes place in SharePoint, or any other portal.
  • Provides high performance indexing so large amounts of content can be made available to users.
  • Leverages NetDocuments security to determine which documents users can access.
  • All content remains safely in NetDocuments.  The portal has only a searchable representation of documents – pointers – and users are directed back to NetDocuments to launch documents found in their search result.

The connector supports both full and incremental crawls:

  • Full crawls request and index all desired content from NetDocuments
  • Incremental crawls request and index only content which has changed since the last crawl
