Nuxeo Automation Script/Chain and File Properties

[Sudarshan_Ghate]

Hello,

I am executing an automation script when a document is created. The document will be created using either drag and drop or using API. Is there a way to access the Windows File properties (such as Folderpath/Date Created/Date modified) and store them as metadata fields in a custom schema?

Thank you

This is really a browser question, not a Nuxeo question. Most browsers don't allow this because they are meant to be sandboxed. It's highly unlikely there will be any reliable way to get this from drag and drop in the browser.

With the REST API, you can add whatever metadata you want, but this is really just a way to say "yes make your client upload whatever metadata you want". Again it has nothing to do with Nuxeo Server. Your client needs to have access to this info.
