- This path identifies the directory for the objects within the package to use as a default location when files are obtained from the object repository. Any directory path may be entered by clicking on the folder icon and navigating to the desired directory. Certain keyword locations have been configured in Aptify to be used instead of entering an entire directory path. These keyword locations include:
- Select the Always Check For Object Updates option if you want the system to download an object each time it is requested during a single session.
- When this option is cleared, the information for objects in this package is retrieved only once during a user session and the information is used throughout the session. When it is selected, each time the Object is requested, the Object's information is retrieved from the database.
- You only need to enable this option if you expect that the objects in this package will change during a user's session. Otherwise, you should leave it cleared.
- Save the Object Packages record.
