Network path as variable for email generation - XDP Form

[LucreciousDFF]

Hope there is a way; I need to provide the network path location as a variable for the creation of an email generated within the form.

Is there a way to store the network path location when opening the form from a network location?

Thank you in advance.

This script will return the actual path of the PDF.

event.target.path

Used as:

var vPath = event.target.path;

Works perfectly. Thank you.

Hello radzmar,

So, in further searches on this topic I found some additional information:

event.target.path.toString(); full path with filename.
event.target.documentFileName.toString(); filename only.

However, I am seeking a way to pull ONLY the folder where the file was opened on the network, and, wondering if this works prior to modifying my form?

event.target.documentPath.toString(); ???

Does this address that requirement in your estimation? If not, please provide direction.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

you don't need the toString(), the method already returns a string.

To get just the path use

event.target.path.replace(event.target.documentFileName, "");
