There is a bunch of common methods (like AddFolder and AddFile) collected in the class Bring2mind.DNN.Modules.DMX.API in the Core.dll. You could check that out. Note you will need to leverage that from some code that you run while inside DNN. I.e. it needs http context and DNN context to run. Peter

One more note: these methods return the resulting EntryInfo which is the data holder of these items (folder/file). Naming in DMX follows the same naming conventions as DNN. So you should easily find the EntriesController for instance which you can use for more fine grained operations like you'll probably want.

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
