Thanks Adrian. Defining eXist WebDAV as a network drive is a great option, and I’m embarrassed that I didn’t think of that – it’s pretty obvious. If I want to take this to the next step (more automation), do you know if transformation output/results are API-accessible using the oXygen SDK?

Hi,
Both the results and/or output of an Oxygen transformation are designed to be saved locally.
So, no, there is no way to configure an Oxygen transformation scenario to output the result to a remote location (this includes an eXist-db database).
One trick you can use, if you have WebDAV enabled on your eXist-db server, is to mount the WebDAV repository as a network drive (or as a folder for Linux/macOS) and configure Oxygen to output to that mounted location (as if it was local).
Regards,
Adrian

I must be missing something … this is too complicated. I’m using oXygen with eXist-db. All I want to do is save the results of an XQuery query to the eXist database as a new document in a direct a way as possible. Saving the results from the results window only seems to support the local filesystem. I can jump through a few hoops and get the results transferred to an editing window where I can “Save to URI” and ultimately get it sent out via WebDAV, but the dialogs for that are ridiculously convoluted IMO. Am I missing a more direct way?
