Export folders / files to local file system

[pt-tier2]

Hi,

Currently we have an Alfresco 4.0 implementation and are wondering if it's possible to export a folder with subfolders/ files to the local file system, or whether we will need to use the API in order to achieve this?

Cheers,
Paul

You will have to use an API, you can't directly access the files.  

However you could also use one of the filesystem projections like CIFS/SMB, WebDav or FTP.

You could also use the export from the UI, but that will export as a compressed filesystem (ACP format).

I assumed as much, but thanks for the quick response and confirmation.
