Dears,

My requirement is to fetch the files from the Network Shared folder (\\shc-abc\xyx\) . Do we have any smart service to get the files from shared folders?

Thanks in advance.

      Hi Stefan,

      we are on premises 16.3 version Appian installation. I tried this plugin. But it just doesn't recognize the source path. It always gives "Invalid File Path" exception. Would appreciate if you can help out

      Thanks in advance

      Sorry, no real experience here. Maybe you can post your code/configuration.

      Hi,

      I have used this plug-in a couple of years back, something to consider for accessing network path is,

      Make sure the Application server has access to network path. For example if it's running as a windows service make sure that the log on context user account has necessary access to the network path

      If the network path is mapped as a network drive, make sure the user account has access to the network drive as well.

      Or try using proper escape sequenced UNC path

      the destination input is the folder path, not the file path.

      Hope that helps
