‼	LEGACY TECHNOLOGY DETECTED!! Export operations changed dramatically in version 2021 with the addition of Export Behaviors. Please visit the Export (Activity) article for more up to date information in version 2021.

File System Export is a Legacy Export provider allowing users to export using the Windows file system during the Document Export activity.

⚠	File System Export is one of the depreciated Legacy Export providers as of version 2.72. Going forward, it is considered best practice to use a CMIS Export provider with the appropriate Connection Type. The CMIS Binding equivalent to File System Export is the "NTFS" Connection Type.

There are a few options under the Export Settings property of the Document Export activity when selecting "File System Export":

You will define your base export folder under the "General" heading.
The "File Export Settings" heading allows you to control some of the format settings of the output files. For example, you can change the exported file type to a PDF here.
You can set the file and folder naming according to a Content Type (such as a Content Model) under File and Directory Naming.
You can export a metadata "buddy file" (including XML and JSON files) using the "Metadata Export" setting.
