It doesn't strictly answer your question, but since we don't always get what we want in Workfront....
if you use this text mode in document report:

listdelimiter=<hr>
listmethod=nested(folders).lists
name=All folders
textmode=true
type=iterate
valueexpression=CONCAT({ID}," - ",{name})
valueformat=HTML

you will get a field that concatenates both folder(s) ID and name in a report cell.

Hope this helps

Hello,

depending on what you are expecting, but using a calculated field and

{ID} for the documentID, or {docObjCode} for the document object type will

I guess that you want something like the filetype or the extension, so you could also try

{currentVersion}.{fileType}

{currentVersion}.{ext}

You are absolutely right. I took a wrong turn somewhere in the answer to the question.

I will think about a solution, but do not have any idea yet.

Sorry for the moment.
