For those of us using the SharePoint connector as part of our implementation, is there a way to filter by unmanaged objects? I am also having difficulty accessing the "Location" property when building views on folders that are being managed by M-

Talin

Hi,

We are a start-up and new M-Files client. As part of our implementation, it was determined that the best course of action would be to just promote documents one-by-one from SharePoint (using the connector) into M-Files. Folder objects were created to help assist with this effort. We have now promoted all of the folders, but are struggling with a few things:

  1. Is it possible to create views that filter based on SharePoint location? The property seems to exist on managed folder objects, but I can't seem to filter on this system property.
  2. Ideally, we would like to create a queue of documents that are pending promotion from SharePoint to M-Files. Is there a way to create a view that only shows unmanaged objects? Or filters out managed ones? Or is our best best to just create an "Unclassified" class, get everything into M-Files, and then manage the queue from there?

Any help is much appreciated - thanks!

    You can use the External View showing SharePoint documents. In that view you can add Class as a column and then sort by Class. This will not hide managed files but at list you will be able to gather all unmanaged documents in one section of your view. That should make your task a bit easier.
