I finally completed a connector between Vault and Bluestreak. A while back I asked for feedback, and the response was pretty minimal. But, there was a common theme: file upload.
In addition to the upload feature, my extension will add items to your activity stream in Bluestreak. It will log activities whenever you move a file or item to a released state. It will also log all change order state changes.
That's about it for now. This is just a first pass at something between Vault and Bluestreak. There is a lot of room for new features and improvements. If the response to this app is good, there may be updates in the near future.
Requirements:
- Vault Workgroup/Collaboration/Professional 2012
- A Bluestreak account

To Use:
- Run the install.
- Launch Vault Explorer.
- Run the Tools->Bluestreak->Connect command to log in to Bluestreak.
- Now the extension will be able to write to the Bluestreak activity stream. This will happen automatically when certain actions are triggered.
- To upload a file, right click on the file and select the Upload to Bluestreak command.
- Select which Bluestreak group you want to upload to.
- If there is an attached visualization file, such as DWF, you will be given the option to upload the selected file or its visualization.
