In this text box, specify a domain user account that will be used by the workflow.

The accepted format is UPN (User Principal Name) – testuser@test.domain.corp

Make sure that the account specified in this text box has completed the authorization and consent process through Token Vault. Otherwise, the component will fail to process files through this account.

You may use RRTs in this text box. When you use an RRT, make sure that it is replaced with a domain user account in UPN format; otherwise, the component will fail to process files and they will be rejected.

Specify the folder in the Box account into which the documents will be uploaded. If the specified folder does not exist, it will be created at run time. Click browse button (...) to locate an existing folder in the Box Directory window. If you leave this field blank, documents will be uploaded to the root folder in the box directory. You can use RRTs in this field.

The length of the folder name is limited to 100 characters. The name of the folder can contain neither of the following characters: / \ ". The back slash and forward slash characters (\ and /) can be used as folder separators. The root folder is indicated by the back slash (\).

Rename file

Select this check box to enter a rename scheme for routed files.

For example, if the original document name is JohnDoe_Essay.pdf, then ~BXR::FileName~_~BXR::Counter,3~~BXR::FileExt~ will be replaced by JohnDoe_Essay_001.pdf.
