  • 1.  Studio Script Folder Paths Changes

    Posted 11-15-2019 07:32
    ​We need a way for Group A (Fixed Asset) to only be able to see and run their scripts and Group B (MDG) to only see and run their scripts how do we separate scripts that are loaded to Foundation and secure them so only those teams see their allowed scripts? We can see the folder settings withing studio Options but where on foundation can we find these folders I would assume this be a folder on the Foundation server for C or D drives we have the software but the admin can't locate them.

    Example below from within our Studio we like to be able to have a GroupB for example and place there Query or Transactions scripts in that folder so those only ones they are able to execute and run and see?.

    Query Libraries
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Queryfiles
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Queryfiles/GroupB 
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Querytemplates
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Querytemplates/GroupB
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Supportingfiles
    http://winshuttleqa.fplu.fpl.com/Supportingfiles/GroupB

    Transaction libraries

    Hi Paul

    You'd have to ensure you had groups for each folder in SharePoint with specific permissions to those folders, i.e. you stop inheriting the permissions from the parent and setup permissions for the groups you have.  Note you could also setup sub-sites, if that's easier.

    Then have the users in each group change the default in Studio to the folders they need to use/see.

    Hope that helps you get started.

    Best Regards,
    Sigrid

    ​Thanks we are actually trying to create the new folder groups on the server but the folders found in the Winshuttle Studio Options > Foundation section (Default Destinations for Winshuttle Foundation). These are the settings we need to have changed for a small group of users in a different BU so they only execute those TXR scripts and not all the others we have on server. We can't seem to locate the folder paths for these script and data files on the WFE or the SP server is where we looking for the help? We assume these would be physical folders on one of the servers since all the scripts are checked into foundation and approved so should be easy to locate but even searching for a few of the TXR scripts on WFE or SP are no results found..

    thanks again

    Hi again Paul,

    They're stored in the SharePoint content database.  

    In lieu of accessing that, a site collection admin can find files via the Foundation site, download, delete, create new folders, etc.  

    Hope that helps,
    Sigrid

    ​Thanks we spoke to the SP Admins and they can't locate the SP content DB per the release notes or anything found fro mthe support team gave to us. Is there a specific content DB these are used for as I assume this would be a general content DB for all customers as this is a common directory for all users when foundation installed looks like?

    As the point is to be able to change the setting in the Winshuttle Studio Application Options for the default scripts to there specific folder where scripts will be located.We will make that change on there machines once we have the new folder created under the parent folder created when Winshuttle was first installed.

    thanks again

    HI Paul

    To find the right server, on Foundation (I have 12.1) there is a settings area, where if you have the right permissions, you'll see this:
    When you click on it you'll get the SQL server name and database name of UG - but you just need to worry about the SQL server name

    Then if you login using SSMS on that server and expand the databases section, you'll see them.  You'd have to go back to whoever did the install to find the right database names, as those may vary.

    Another option is to open the site in Internet explorer (does not work in other browsers).  You then navigate to your folder and click on the Library tab, then click to open in explorer.  It will prompt you to login, and if you have the right permissions, you can view the contents of a script library or template library, for example.


    You should NOT upload scripts and templates this way, as you will need to resubmit them to Foundation so that all of the properties are filled in correctly, making it usable.  But you can download them and potentially delete them, as well.
    HTH,
    Sigrid
