Can anyone tell me what this means? Google search no help
“Path_from_sf” Is it shared file or shared folder? Is it shorthand code? I cannot seem to locate any other uses of this. Thanks

I agree, unfortunately it is not something that is available to me. This is all I have.

Ok. In such a case a good start point would be clarification where you got these data from. What software are you using that provide those data?

Biggest problem. This is an old school paper document providing this. No other access.

🤷 Actually it doesn't matter is this a old or new school and is the info provided through electronic, paper, or any other type of document. The only important thing is what are you intending to do with those data and do you have access to the account holding them or that providing access to them in some other way? What is the actual object of your question? 🧐 You haven't given answers to Mark's question above! Clarify to yourself what actually you're looking for at the main point, so be able find it.

I don’t have access to the account holding them. I am trying to determine if this is sharing the PNG file into a shared file group or if it is sharing the shared file out to someone new. Does the syntax tell me what direction the path is going? What does the syntax tell me in general?

Michaellangley 🙂 If I have to bet, it's a file "New Harvest Ag. Presentation pg.2.PNG" residing in shared folder "Bevan Family AR" (or rather had been at the time data was valid, if any such moment). Every file residing within a shared folder becomes shared too. Most probably this story is just... a story right now. If you want to do something, clarify (to yourself primary) what you want and... do it. 😉
Good luck.

I agree that New Harvest is a file in Bevans. I think this is showing that it was added to Bevans and became a shared file. The opposite argument in this is that this is somehow sharing everything in the Bevans Folder to someone outside the original group. Nothing in the information suggests that this is sharing the folder out to a new person.
Thanks for the insight and help!
