Hey developers, I need some help. I have a folder in which there are documents with an ID and a name. I need to create a condition in an interface to display only a document with a specific name. Is that possible?

      What do you use on that interface to display the content? a grid? document and folder browser?

      For filtering documents a usually like a recordtype which contains the documentId and other metadata for a document like ids, tags, lastedited. Way easier to filter and search for specific values.
