Path of a qlikview document from the mounted folder

Hi,

Is there a way to get the path of a document from the mounted folder in the reload script? For example if the mounted folder is "MountedFolder" and the qlikview document "Test.qvw" is in a subfolder "SubFolder" of the mounted folder, I would like to have the following return: "MountedFolder/SubFolder/Test.qvw".

Is there a way to achieve that?

I have tried that but it returns the absolute path of the qlikview document.

It is very interesting but it is not really a solution to my problem.

Hello try this expression:

mid(DocumentPath(),index(DocumentPath(),'\',-3)+1)



This should return the document path in you desired format.

Thank you for the answer. It works for the example that I gave but It was just an example. In reality, I don't know how many subfolders I have from the mounted folder in QMC to the qlikview document. I have seen that the path I am looking for is exactly the same as the task name of the reload task scheduled in QMC for the qlikview document. So maybe I should rephrase the question:

Not sure how to retrieve the task name. Are all mounted folders in a common location? If yes, then the expression can be modified to give your desired result.
