Authorization to create folders under Favorites

  • 1.  Authorization to create folders under Favorites

    I'm trying to find out exactly what path to specify in an Authorization entry, to allow the creation, modification, and deletion of folders under Favorites.

    I discovered that the path \FAVORITES\user* (with a wildcard) works, but I want to know what the specific path is. In this example, user is the name of a USER or USERGROUP object.

    In the OFS table, favorites are just object links stored under the path of the corresponding USER or USERGROUP object:
    \client\path_to_user\user
    E.g.,
    \0001\SYSTEM\USERS\MIKE/MYDEPT

    (Note that creation of links to folders in the Automation Engine is usually a bad idea.)
