A CMIS Repository is Grooper's representation of an external storage location obtained via a CMIS Connection. Using a CMIS Repository, Grooper can import documents from and export documents to that storage location.

You can't understand what a CMIS Repository is without understanding what a CMIS Connection is.


A CMIS Connection is the Grooper object that connects Grooper to external storage platforms.

  • Like the Windows file system, or Box cloud storage platform, or an Outlook email account.
  • Once connected with a CMIS Connection, Grooper can access content in the storage platform by creating and accessing a child CMIS Repository.


The CMIS Repository is the Grooper object that represents a particular repository in the storage platform.

  • Like a folder in the Windows file system, or a folder in a Box account, or an Outlook inbox.
