Read security from a document on import to Laserfiche?

asked on January 21, 2016

Is it possible to read Windows ACL/NTFS security from a document on import to Laserfiche? The use case would be that a user wants to import a document from a shared drive. Upon import a workflow can then use the windows security information to assign the same rights in Laserfiche. I am pretty sure this is not possible out of the box so would it be possible using the SDK?

As you guessed, there's no built-in support in any of the Laserfiche products for this.  It's not hard to read file permissions in C# (see e.g. this thread), and you should be able to fairly directly convert the file ACL to a Laserfiche ACL.  Of course, you'll want to be careful about inheritance so make sure you're using the correct scope and only assigning ACLs where they are needed.
