File Store (Object)

File Stores are storage locations for content files associated with nodes in Grooper's Node Tree. This includes the scanned and imported images of Batch Page objects, the PDF versions of imported PDFs on Batch Folder objects, OCR results for Batch Pages, and scripting source code. If you select an object in the Node Tree, go to the "Advanced" tab, then go to the "Files" tab underneath. Each file listed is stored in a File Store.

File Stores can be any folder you have writable access to, but it is best practice to use a fully qualified UNC path.

Active File Store

New files, such as scanned or imported images of Batch Pages, are always written to the "Active File Store". This is a property set on the Grooper Root in the Node Tree. It will default to the File Store created when the Grooper Repository was initialized unless otherwise specified.
