9.8.Manifest file and its settings
The manifest file is an XLS file that is automatically created when exporting any files and/or folders into ZIP format. It is a supplementary export file and can be found in the ZIP file downloaded from the Tasks list. It contains a summary about the items that have been exported. By default, the manifest contains the following information:
- On the Summary tab the user may view the task summary information, the creation date and creator of the export action, the total number of the exported items;
- On the Entity tab (named after entity where the items were exported from) the user may find the title of the items, the item type, size and path of each item.
The exact fields involved in this manifest file can be configured in the administrator’s settings as described below.
