# RenditionsFilePath

To write rendered images, PDF files, and thumbnails (created when you set CreateImageRendition, CreatePdfRendition, or CreateThumbnailRendition to `TRUE`) to a folder rather than ingesting them as separate documents, set this parameter to the path of the desired folder.

TIP: The folder must already exist, and the user running the connector must have permission to write files to the folder.

If you write rendered images, PDF files, and thumbnails to a folder the connector adds metadata fields to each document that contain the paths of associated files. The fields are named:

- `RENDITION_FILE_IMAGE`
- `RENDITION_FILE_PDF`
- `RENDITION_FILE_THUMBNAIL`

When the connector sends ingest-removes for deleted documents, the connector deletes any rendered images, PDF files, and thumbnails associated with those documents.

NOTE: If you delete the datastore for a fetch task, the connector cannot delete any rendered images, PDF files, and thumbnails that it has already generated, so you must remove these manually.

NOTE: If you set this parameter, OpenText recommends using a unique value for each fetch task.

Type: | String
Default: |
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks or Default
Example: | `RenditionsFilePath=\\server\web_renditions\`
