URLs for files in an Alfresco document library folder

Is it possible to retrieve the URLS for all files stored in a folder at once within an Alfresco document library?  Using Internet Explorer, I can right-click an individual file icon and select Copy shortcut, but this method returns only a single URL.  I am interested in obtaining all file URLs in a batch.  Thank you.   -Howard Fulmer

Re: URLs for files in an Alfresco document library folder

Hi,

A possible solution could be "Node Browser":

1.- In your Alfresco you have to obtain the idFolder in you'll obtains url's of the documents (properties of the folder. Por example: "2a9c2dfe-eeb0-481a-9c68-d4c214abdeb2")

2.- In your Alfresco, click on Node Browser and write the following fts-alfresco query:

SELECT cmis:name FROM cmis:document WHERE IN_FOLDER('idFolder')

3.- If the query is ok, you'll obtain a list of documents in that folder

4.- You can copy the NodeRef of each document and the url of this document will see similar to this:

http://localhost:8080/share/page/site/NAME_OF_YOUR_SITE/document-details?nodeRef=WORKSPACE_YOU_OBTAIN

For example:

http://localhost:8080/share/page/site/netic360/document-details?nodeRef=workspace://SpacesStore/f39c...

Where do I click "Node Browser" in your step 2?  I don't see it in my Alfresco document library screen.  Thanks.

You can find the Node Browser by accessing the Admin Tools in the header menu.

Once inside, you can follow with ‌ instructions.

I don't see the Admin Tools.  Could you perhaps show a screenshot?

Here is what I see at the top of my screen:

I am an Alfresco site manager, but not an administrator (?).  Are the Admin Tools not available to me?

Thanks.

Yes, the Admin Tools is only enabled for administrators.

And besides that, I see you are using a customized application, so you should also be checking if the customization has not removed the action at all.
