The Content Repository Plugin is used to implement a persistence layer for data so that you can store images and videos using this plugin. It contains a repository, folders and files, so you create a repository (parent folder) in which subfolders can be stored in any hierarchy.

Example call of a Content Repository Plugin function via a server-side Business Object:

var result = Simplifier.Plugin.contentRepoPlugin.contentRepositoryAdd({
    "provider": "ClearFileSystem",
    "name": input.name,
    "description": input.description,
    "permissionObjectType" : "App",
    "permissionObjectID": "DummyApp"
});

The payload configuration depends on the required slot.

Difference between File System and Clear File System:

The file system stores the received content repository data in a database.
The clear file system stores this data in an actual file system (compare Windows Explorer).
