Integrate with Comala Document Management

You can integrate Comala Document Management with Scroll HTML Exporter. This gives you the option to only export content that has been approved through every step of a Comala Workflow, and has been published to the final workflow state. This state can be any workflow state with the final:true parameter, regardless of the state's name.

This guide explains how to integrate Comala Document Management and Scroll HTML Exporter, and how to activate this export option.

Initial steps

Before you start, you must fulfil the following prerequisites:

Scroll HTML Exporter (version 4.0.0 or later) must be installed
Comala Document Management (version 4.18.2 or later) must be installed
Comala Document Management for Scroll Exporter must be installed (can only be installed after Scroll PDF Exporter and Comala Document Management)
A Comala Workflow must be configured for some or all of the pages you are exporting
Scroll Versions and/or Scroll Translations cannot be active in the space

Export only content published to the final Comala Workflow state

Now, the Export only the last published versions of the pages option is available in the HTML export dialogue at Show Details > Content > Comala Document Management.

Below is an overview of the behaviour when this export property is enabled / disabled:

Is the option selected?	Behavior
	Only pages and content published to the final Comala workflow state will be exported
	The HTML export will include all pages in the scope of the export, and the latest version of the pages' content – irrespective of whether it has been approved with a Comala Document Management

Hide the workflow header and footer

The option to Hide workflow header and footer is also now available in the HTML export dialog at Show Details > Content > Comala Document Management.

Below is an overview of the behaviour when this export property is enabled / disabled:

Is the option selected?	Behavior
	Workflow headers defined through the `headertemplate`/`footertemplate` parameters, or by using the workflow code with the pageheader and pagefooter macros, will be hidden in the HTML export.
	The HTML export will include the defined workflow header and/or footer.

Activate these setting by default (custom templates only)

By default, both settings are deactivated – for custom templates, you can define these setting to be activated by default for exports executed with that template.

To do so, select the Export only the last published versions of the pages or Hide the workflow header and footer template settings in the template editor.
