Saving forms into a Network folder

Laserfiche Forms Business Processes
Updated March 14
asked on March 13

I have been working on building business processes and forms for some time. Each business process I created ended with saving the forms into the Laserfiche repository. Is there a way to save the forms into a network folder instead? I would appreciate any guidance from the community. Thanks.

You would use a Workflow SDK Script activity to run code like the example here:

Exporting Image from Repository Using Workflow Script Activity - But Using Different Credentials - Laserfiche Answers

You would then run the Workflow containing that SDK Script activity to trigger the export.

The repository is meant to be your folder system where users would go to search for form document archives and for that use case it works great. There are certain use cases where an NTFS file system is needed, especially with 3rd party services that can not read the repository file system.

If you want to automate getting forms generated inside of Laserfiche out to an NTFS system so that another service can pick it up your either looking at using the API, SDK, or a 3rd party add-on for On-Premise workflow like document export from qfiche

Seconding that the right approach is saving the forms into a Laserfiche repository using the native functionality, then using Laserfiche Workflow or other method to automatically export them to the desired file share/network path location.

Thank you both for your guidance.

 

Samuel, in your approach, would we still need to use API, SDK, or a 3rd party add-on in addition to the Laserfiche Workflow to automatically export the forms from the Laserfiche Repository to the Network folder? I prefer a solution that does not require any third party component.
