Adding Publish Folders

Create subfolders in the SmartSync top-level parent folder to provide additional save locations when uploading new parent files using Publish to Server.

Rights to modify the IIS configuration.

  1. Open Administrative Tools | IIS Manager.

  2. In the Connections pane, select the SmartSync entry.
  3. Double-click the Configuration Editor icon in the center pane.
  4. Select (Collection) and click .

  5. In the Actions pane, click Add.
  6. In the Properties pane, in the key field, enter publish.

  7. In the Properties pane, in the value field, enter a valid location. Example: C:\Sync Files Folder\2011.

  8. (Optional) After the path, enter a label in between quotation marks to be used in Working Papers. Example: C:\Sync Files Folder\2011”2011 Files”.

  9. (Optional) Add multiple folders, and labels, in the value field separated by a semi-colon (;). Example: C:\Sync Files Folder\2010”2010 Files”;C:\Sync Files Folder\2011”2011 Files”.

Publishing a SmartSync file stores it in the specified location on the server.

  • The path of the publish key overrides the path of the files key. To create subfolders while using the publish key enter the following path: C:\files key path\subfolder name\.

    Example: The path of files key is C:\Sync Files Folder. To create subfolders Sub1, Sub2, Sub3, the publish key value should be defined as C:\Sync Files Folder\Sub1;C:\Sync Files Folder\Sub2;C:\Sync Files Folder\Sub3.

  • Two types of paths can be specified for the files key or the publish key.

    • For files on the same server as the IIS service, use the absolute path. Example: C:\SyncFiles.
    • For files on a different server than the IIS service, use a UNC path. Example: \\server\path.

    Entering a path in a format other than these two types will prevent the SmartSync Server from accessing top-level parent files.
