While you can view and annotate many different types of documents in the Document Viewer, there are some types that you cannot view (or hear, in the case of audio or video files). You can use the Launch extension in GlobalSearch to view any of your documents and make edits to them in their local applications, saving those changes directly back into GlobalSearch when complete.
You can only use the Launch feature when you have enabled it in the Extensions interface on your client machine, GlobalSearch can communicate with the Extensions tray application, the file type of your document has been mapped so that GlobalSearch knows which program to launch to; and you have the necessary permissions. Also, Launch is unavailable if the document is currently in a Workflow Queue that you do not have permissions to or is currently queued or in process for PDF Conversion.
Specific file types may be configured to Launch in Manual Monitor mode. When launched in this way, the Launch Queue will be displayed alongside the local application. In most cases, the Launch Queue will only display the document that is currently launched out of GlobalSearch. If you have more advanced needs, you do have the ability to launch multiple documents simultaneously out of GlobalSearch. In this case, the Launch Queue will present all documents that have been launched and are awaiting action.
In the Launch Queue interface that appears, select a document and click either Save Changes or Discard Changes. It is important to note that if you do not click Save Changes, edits to your document will not be sent back into GlobalSearch.
