Begging on knees feature request (multiple file pin)

awdavis · Post by **awdavis** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 11:00 pm

I have several situations where I need to pin about 400 individual files in a single directory. Don't ask why we have 400 files in a directory all individually shared (ok, since you asked, they're CAD drawings and are individually released and approved.) Could you pretty-please let me select multiple files and pin them all at once?

Right now my automation consists of having an intern do it (which, come to think of it, does the same thing but is voice-activated.)

I'm not sure that a BOK (beg on knees) request will get a higher priority in our feature enhancements database, but I'll make note of that.

Update: We had the feature request logged from you earlier this year.

I added a link to this post, too.

Oh, yeah. I forgot I asked that already. Glad you remembered.

I need to do this a lot too, and I use VaultAgent for that.

listfolder a path, prepend 'pin' with a text editor, and run it from VaultAgent. Commit optionally from the Vault GUI client or from VaultAgent again.

cheers, M Wickardt
