hi @lenainjaune Short answer first No, it is not easily possible today to automatically insert the _logical Nextcloud folder path_ (for example `ODJ & CR / COORDO / CR / 260114.odt`) into documents via headers, footers, fields, templates, or macros in Collabora Online. ## Why the built-in “File path” field does not work You already found the right feature in LibreOffice / Collabora: **Document → Field → File name → Path/File name** This field shows the **local filesystem path on the Collabora server** , not the cloud path. This happens because: - Collabora Online edits a **temporary local copy** of the file - That copy lives in `/tmp/...` on the Collabora server - The real Nextcloud path is **not known to LibreOffice core** - WOPI (the protocol between Nextcloud and Collabora) does not expose the logical folder tree as a document property So the behaviour you observed is correct and unavoidable at the moment. What you are seeing (`/tmp/user/docs//260114.odt`) is expected behaviour and not configurable from the document side. ## Should you contact Framasoft? You **can** , but mainly to confirm the limitation, --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.collaboraonline.com/t/insert-cloud-location-for-all-documents-automatically/4358)._
