In order to use WebDAV to transfer data, both client and server must support the protocol. Since this is an established standard, all popular web servers actually enable corresponding implementation. And various operating systems such as Windows (since XP), macOS or Linux now also offer standard support for transmissions via the WebDAV protocol.
For example, with Windows you don’t needany additional software or drivers. You can set up and establish a WebDAV connection to a server within Explorer, which then displays the appropriate platform for data exchange as if it were a computer drive. Conversely, this also means that you can open, edit and erase files stored there or save them to the server as usual in Windows. The transfer protocol enables users access to cloud files or files on a separate server in real time, without the hassle of downloading, caching, editing and uploading.
