File System Connector 24.1

# MappedSecurity

The `MappedSecurity` parameter specifies whether to get the security information for files. To extract an Access Control List (ACL) from each file and add the ACL to the document metadata, set this parameter to `true`. The ACL contains a list of the users and groups who are allowed to access the file, and a list of users and groups who are not allowed to access the file.

To use Mapped Security to protect documents that are indexed into IDOL, you must extract ACLs by setting this parameter to `true`.

This parameter is supported only on certain platforms. The connector can get NT security information on Windows and POSIX security information on Linux. The connector can retrieve Netware ACLs for files retrieved from a Netware file system, when the connector is installed on Windows.

NOTE: A fetch task can only retrieve security information from a single type of file system. To retrieve ACLs from multiple types of file system (for example NT and Netware), configure a separate fetch task for each.
