# Managing repositories

The JMap Documents configuration interface displays the table of repositories configured in the  extension and provides access to the **Create**, [Synchronize](#synchroniser-les-depots), and **Delete** repositories functions as well as the section to select the [data sources](https://docs-jmapserver-lima.k2geospatial.com/e/extensions/documents/configuring-jmap-documents/selecting-data-sources-to-associate-documents-with) to associate documents with. 

You can select multiple repositories to synchronize or delete them in bulk. 

The table displays the name, status, platform, last update date, and internal ID of each repository.

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="208.8807339449541"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Status</strong></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Error</td><td>Indicates that the repository is not available for use because its configuration contains errors.</td></tr><tr><td>Job queued</td><td>Indicates that the repository is waiting to be synchronized.</td></tr><tr><td>Ready</td><td>Indicates that the repository is ready and available for use.</td></tr></tbody></table>

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="208"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Plateforme</strong></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>File system</td><td>The repository is of type File system.</td></tr><tr><td>Hyperlink</td><td>The repository is of type Hyperlink.</td></tr><tr><td>SharePoint</td><td>The repository is of type SharePoint.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Synchronizing repositories

This function is also accessible from the configuration interface of each repository.&#x20;

When JMap Pro application users delete documents or hyperlinks from a repository, they are not automatically deleted from the JMap System DB table; they are still listed there but their status becomes *obsolete*.&#x20;

To delete documents and hyperlinks from the System DB table as well as their associations with spatial data sources, you must run the **Synchronize** function. This is a way to optimize the performance of repositories and the **Documents** extension.
