29 ➡ The **Server URL Manager** dialog box appears.
30 1. Click on the **+** button to the right of the search bar and then, in the menu that appears, select the type of server: //Alfresco//.
31 ➡ The **Add a file server** box appears
32 1. Fill in the fields as described in the Server configuration section below.

111 __Roles and permissions for documents on the Alfresco side__
112
113 Thus, a visitor (uninvited user on the site, Consumer in Alfresco) will only be granted read and download rights.
114
115 We have arbitrarily chosen not to restrict the rights (on the Alfresco side) with regard to actions that would only be possible if the Digdash connected user were the creator of the document (orange boxes).
