Importing a Site

You can "import" a site definition in Contribute through the use of the connection keys. The connection keys make it easy for non-technical content providers to create a site definition without dealing with technical issues such as FTP servers and remote folder locations on the server.

Importing a site by using a connection key also uses an abbreviated version of the Connection Wizard. You simply type in the passphrase given to you by the person who generated the connection key, and then supply your login information (username and password).

importing a connection key

Browse to and locate the connection key your received (via e-mail or on a network drive). Connection Keys are files that end with the .stc file extension.
