Setting the correct user in docman when uploading a file via integration

HI Janice @jhooperyan 

As you’re seeing if the connector is doing the upload, then you’ll be seeing it as the credentials of the connector user.  I guess we need the ability to directly modify the user post upload, but I don’t know if that’s possible.  If you haven’t made any progress, drop me a note and I’ll look into it.

Hi @Peter Sketch Boomi 

No progress so far.  But I was hoping I wasn’t the first person to run into this and someone else had a solution.

The only thing I can come up with is to make the document upload a 2 step process in Boomi.  (1) upload the document (2) trigger a script to change the security access after the fact.

So we are starting to research if we script the security change.

I’ve certainly not come across it I’m afraid.  Maybe push the “real” user’s info into another field and then trigger a script to do the update with that info.  Or, if you wanted it to all live in Boomi land, you could create a custom Action to do the work?  I’ll try and take a look later.

Hello ​@jhooperyan ,

can you share how did you manage to upload physical file / checkin file into IFS using Boomi ?
