RE: Copy to file system using webdav

Hi Mike,

I suspect you're referring to the smart service enabled by the Appian Collaboration File System Utilities plugin.
Perhaps this forum post will help you.

Note that the the aforementioned plugin isn't available on forum anymore.
Further use of this plugin isn't recommended and should be evaluated very carefully.
When this plugin is deployed, Appian designers could have access to file system resources via Appian that would otherwise be restricted.
Some organizations may find these conditions undesirable.

Consider HTTP File Upload and Download Smart Services as a more secure alternative.

Which specific shared component are you using, and which specific smart service? I do not see a "Copy To Filesystem" plugin mentioned under Shared Components.

My assumption is that "Copy to Filesystem" is the smart service, so I likely just need the specific Shared Component you are using that has this smart service to look into this further.
