Setting a custom destination for a workgroup

Edit online

Choose your workgroup destination inbox. Packages sent to the workgroup are stored at this location.

If you have a group of users that are not permitted to access the server-default storage location, use a workgroup with a custom inbox configured. Packages sent to the workgroup are first uploaded to the server-default storage location, and then relayed to the specified storage location. When the workgroup users download the package, they download the package from the custom inbox location.

When packages are deleted from the default location, they are not automatically removed from the custom location.

Note: When symbolic links are enabled for a storage location, packages in the custom inbox location are stored as actual files, not symbolic links. The default inbox location contains symbolic links, but the custom inbox contains actual files.
  1. Select a workgroup and go to the Nodes and storage tab.
  2. Under inbox destination, select Custom.
  3. To upload directly to the specified storage location instead of first uploading to the server-default storage location, select Upload directly to custom inbox.
  4. Select a node from the table and select the storage location you want to use as the custom inbox.
  5. Click Save.
