Hi Dojo,
Recently I came across this nice repo on GitHub: Template repository for project documentation (DataMiner)
This works great to have our project documentation live hosted on the DataMiner. And we can even use it to host specific documentation pages inside LCA's or embed or link them in Visual overviews.
How can this be setup for a DataMiner hosted as service (DaaS)?
As we need to deploy/update the documentation content on the folder ".\Webpages\Documentation"
As well as doing an initial configuration in IIS. (see the Github template readme).
Will this at a certain point be a standard configuration on DataMiner?
Hi
you would need to contact our internal team that is managing the DaaS instances. If you would like this as a feature on DaaS this would need to be discussed for the roadmap I believe.
Note that you linked a private template so this functionality is only available within Skyline at the moment.
Wkr,
Any update on this topic?
I did follow the steps to expose the Project Documentation folder on a DaaS and got the following error:
The request is not safe.
(403: The request is not allowed with the current authorization.)
(0HNGDBCI3HJJN:000000A1 | 11/12/2025 08:38:00)
Also tried to expose the web page within a LCA thinking that would pass the dataminer.services authorization but same result.
Is there any configuration needed on a DaaS or in the dataminer.services?
Hi
we do block general access to folders indeed over dataminer.services as a security measure. You do however have the possibility to put files in C:Skyline DataMinerWebpagespublic which will make sure they are available.
You can take a look here (https://docs.dataminer.services/dataminer/dataminer_services/RemoteAccess/About_Remote_Access.html) for more information.
Hi Baptiste, in the meantime we made this repo public, as it is indeed useful to any DataMiner DevOps engineer out there!
Once the IIS configuration is done (one-time-config), we can also already leverage the GitHub deploy actions to push the newly documentation files onto the DataMiner system with every commit or release (depending on preferences).
