Hello, In addition to the folder path to your vault, you will need three pieces of information in order to determine the folder path of a file stored in the vault.
  1. The name of the database
  2. The ID of the file item
  3. The name of the file
Assuming that your vault is stored at C:\Aras\Vault\, the full folder path to the file will follow the format: "C:\Aras\Vault\YOUR_DB_NAME\FIRST_CHARACTER_OF_ID\SECOND_AND_THIRD_CHARACTERS_OF_ID\REST_OF_ID\FILE_NAME" For example, if you want to get the path to the file "Test.pdf" with ID 0D71DA1CE0B24EE690802BAF977D3216 stored in the database InnovatorSolutions, the resulting folder path would be as follows. C:\Aras\Vault\InnovatorSolutions\0\D7\1DA1CE0B24EE690802BAF977D3216\Test.pdf Chris _______________________ Aras Labs Software Engineer
