If the user initiated the connection but does not have the connect access to the parent object (for example, a Workspace Folder), the connection does not succeed. There are no errors and a new business object is created but it is not connected to a file or a folder in DesignSync.

When true, the Connect to DesignSync File/Folder page opens when the user clicks Connect. In the page, the user selects a Type from the type chooser and enters a description of the connection being created.

When false, the connection happens automatically. The Connect to DesignSync File/Folder page does not open and the following assumptions are made:

Connect Initiated From Type of Business Object Created
Navigate DesignSync page The business object created as a result of the connection is always of type DOCUMENTS.
Folder Contents page The business object created in the collaboration platform has the same type as the parent business object. For example, if the parent business object is a folder of type Engineering Specification, the business object created as a result of the connection also has the type Engineering Specification.
Create Issue option in Navigate DesignSync or the Folder Contents page The newly created business object is connected to the Issue.
