Quick customer question… is there any way we can make the path to a folder dynamic in IFS?
Ultimately we want to use an user’s folder instead of C:\temp for the below as this is a security concern. (I.e. C:\Users\$USERNAME$\AppData\IFS\Temp)

We cannot do exactly what they suggest or ask for (use environment variablers), but if you leave the field empty we will default to use the user’s “Documents” folder, and create a folder named Docman there, as I remember it.
Try and see how it works.

Hi Tharindu,
I am guessing the requirement is to define local check-out path for all users of the system. In the past we have achieved by pushing a record to the registry using a Group Policy to set the value to let’s say C:\users\<USERNAME>\IFS\Temp.
The IT team of the customer may be able to get this sorted.
Cheers!

Thanks, good comment!
Before we added the fallback/default value mentioned above, your suggestion is what we recommended customers to do then, if they did not want end-users to select their own path.
FYI, the value is stored in the Windows registry, here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IFS\Document Management\Settings\DocumentFolder
Hope this helps.
