Accessing Common App Data

Post by alibaba »

Hi,

I am completely new to IA and coming from IS.
I need to copy files to the CommonAppData Folder but I cannot find it in the 'Display System Folder' Dialog in Setup Architecture > Files.

Is there a variable pointing to this folder? Any other idea?

Thank you for any answer!

Use 'Get Folder Location' for that, assign the result to a variable, use the variable.

Thank you Eugen!

But with which parameter I should use 'Get Folder Location' Dialog. I cannot find any folder like CommonAppData in the 'Get Folder Location'...
As far as I see there are only Folders of the current User and some system folders but no folders in AllUsers present.

There should be a checkbox for that in that action, 'Get for All Users'.
