Document Location - Changing SharePoint filename

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 517

When uploading a document to SharePoint via D365, the folder is named in SharePoint using the guid.

Is there a way where I can change the name to choose a folder name of our choosing?

Thanks

Lee

    Hi Lee,

    By default, the document location folder name is 'record name + GUID' format.

    You can click ‘Edit Location’ button to change folder name with any value manually in each record.

    If you don't want to guid in folder name, you can refer following steps to remove guid when the record is created.

    1.Go to Releases · seanmcne/OrgDbOrgSettings · GitHub webdite to download solution.

    2.Go Settings > Solution to import the solution that just downloaded.

    Locate the “CreateSPFoldersUsingNameandGuid” and then click the “Add” link, then “Edit” and then change the Current Value from true to false

    Thank you for your answer.

    However I forgot to mention that I need to do this via a Flow, as it needs to be done automatically on creation.

    Thanks
