While you can view and annotate many different types of documents in the Document Viewer, there are certain file types that you cannot view (or hear, in the case of audio or video files). The Launch extension in GlobalSearch can be used to open any of your documents in its native format allowing you to make edits and then save any changes directly back into GlobalSearch when complete.
The Launch feature can only be used when it has been enabled in the Extensions interface on your client machine. GlobalSearch can only communicate with the Extensions tray application when the file type of your document has been mapped so that GlobalSearch knows which program to launch and when you have the given the necessary permissions. In addition, Launch functionality 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.
