# XMLOutputPath

The path and file name of the pre- and post-XML files.

Specify an absolute path, or a path relative to the Media Server executable file.

An output engine writes output to disk when you set SavePreXML or SavePostXML to `TRUE`. Media Server also writes output to disk when it cannot be successfully sent to its destination (for example when the destination server cannot be reached due to network issues).

IMPORTANT: You can use macros to create output paths. OpenText recommends that you include the macro `%segment.type%` somewhere in the path. This macro resolves to `pre`, `post`, or `failed`. It allows you to distinguish between the different types of output and ensures that they are written to different files.

Media Server must be permitted to write to the path that you specify (see AllowedEngineOutputDirectories).
