BaseX offers access to the databases and documents using the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webdav WebDAV] protocol. WebDAV provides convenient means to access and edit XML documents by representing BaseX databases and documents in the form of a file system hierarchy.
=Usage=
By default, the WebDAV service is activated and is accessible at {{Code|http://localhost:8984/webdav/}}. Generally it can be accessed using either with a <code>http://<httphost>:<httpport>/webdav/</code> or <code>webdav://<httphost>:<httpport>/webdav/</code> URL, depending on the used WebDAV client.
The WebDAV service uses the database user credentials in order to perform authentication and authorization. If database user and password are explicitly specified when starting the BaseX HTTP Server using the corresponding [[Startup_Options#BaseX_HTTP_Server|startup options]], WebDAV will not request additional user authentication from the client.
Please check out the following tutorials to get WebDAV running on different operating systems and with oXygen:
