[MarkLogic Dev General] After creating a DB & importing XML files, cannot see the imported files. Why?

[David Sewell]

When you set up a WebDAV server in MarkLogic, you have to specify a
document root. Any documents loaded into the database under that
document root will be visible via WebDAV, but others will not. For
example, if your WebDAV server root is

   /webdav/

your WebDAV view will show everything under that directory URI.
But if you use XCC to load a document into, let's say,

  /docs/mydoc.xml

or

  /mydoc.xml

or

  mydoc.xml

the file will not be visible via your WebDAV server.

So the short answer is that you cannot see all files in the database via
WebDAV unless you always load files to a URI under the WebDAV server
root.
