Overview
WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is an extension of the HTTP protocol that allows clients to manage and edit files stored on a remote server. Built on standard web technologies, it exposes files and directories on the server through HTTP verbs for creation, modification, and deletion, so that remote storage can be treated as an extension of the local file system.
Protocol
WebDAV behaviour is tuned through the WebDav singleton (found in the WebUI under Settings › Network › WebDAV). Two fields in particular control resource usage under heavy client activity: the maximum incoming request size and the maximum number of results returned in a single response.
