User Properties to determine folder location

[gluckett]

Hi All,

is there a code example of how to grab the user properties from the Add form and redirect the document to the location based on what the user picked.

For example, the user arbitrarily drags and drops a file into Vault Client,

an add form appears,

the user enters User Based Properties,

the file is then redirected to the new folder

- such as "BUILDING 123"/"FLOOR 33" 

Is this possible in Vault?

thanks

Hi Gordon,

Yes this is possible using the Vault API. The API lets you detect client side events such as a new file being added. From there you can launch a Windows form and present it to the user. The API even gives you a chance to block certain actions from completing if for example the user did not complete the form.

I would suggest reading Doug's blog regarding Vault Events.
