Configuration

Connections

Virtual Connection

This connector uses a virtual connection and does not require any input during element creation.

Initialization

After a new element is created, on the General page, you will need to specify the folder you would like to access, together with the credentials of a user who has access to that folder.

How to Use

The connector will regularly retrieve the subfolders and files of the specified shared folder and store them in the element. These folders and files are displayed in a tree view.

Note that the tree view is limited to a maximum of eight levels. This means that it is possible that though a subfolder is retrieved correctly, it is not shown in the tree view. To verify these "missing" folders or files, you can check the Folders and Files tables.
