This is used to present files such as PDF’s stored on the OneStream file share. This Component can be used with Mobile and Application Dashboards.
There are only three situations where users can see these files:
-
They must have the ManageFileShare system role
-
The files must be stored in a folder under the Incoming folder.
Example: \\MyServerName\OneStreamShare\Applications\MyApplicationName\Incoming\MyDashboardFiles
-
The file is placed in one of the folders under \\MyServerName\OneStreamShare\Applications\MyApplicationName\Groups and then in a named folder with the same name as a User Group. The file must be in the folder with same name as the User Group and the user must have permissions to that Group.
