file path of vault file

Anonymous — Mon, 11 Sep 2017 14:56:32 GMT

I'm programming in C# in vault 2018. What I need is the path of a file in Vault. I searched the net but can't find a code snippet of it.

I vault I can see Path = $/Myworkfolder/InventorTestProject , but how can I find this path in code ? I don't want to download the file, just open it.

Can anyone help ?

Hello @Anonymous,

I have the same problem, finding a Vault path of the specific file in Vault. Would you like to provide a way how you did it?

Best,

Danijel

I am sorry, but it can't remember for what project I needed this, it has been too long ago.

But I am sure I found it on google somewhere.

What information do you have to identify the file? Its name? The DocumentService class has a GetLatestFilePathsByNames method.

FilePathArray filePathArray = WebServiceManagerObject.DocumentService.GetLatestFilePathsByNames(new string[] { "MyFileName.ext" });
string MyVaultPath = filePathArray.FilePaths[0].Path;

(written off the top of my head, may not be accurate)

Beside that, there is FindFilesBySearchConditions()
