Delete Source File after upload #311

Closed deep2468 closed 2 years ago

I think so it will be help to reduce duplicate file and confusion in working file if there will be a checkbox with an option as "delete source file after upload" in Add new documents window.

Please provide your view on above.

Edit: - same checkbox should also include in Update document window

Do you think is possible to delete a file in the file system from the browser? because it seems a security hole. Maybe I have not understood the feature, but seems when uploading a document from the file system you wish to delete the local document, is that? if this is not the matter, please explain with more detail and some screenshots are always welcome.

Hi darkman97i,

You have rightly addressed my request. I am not a developer so kindly forgive me for any of my poor ideas.

In above case you mean Its not possible to delete local file through browser (since we have no right on users local computer). then can we do this with the help of openkm remote importer ?

An approach to your requirement will be the Hot Folder tool ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLRjkNrSp40 )
