Archive Paths
Document files and application data are stored as files. The location is configurable on the Archive Paths tab.
Under the default configuration, document files and application data are stored in a directory on a file system. However, for Microsoft Azure Cloud deployments, Keep stores document files and application data as Blobs in Azure containers.
The Available Archive Paths area lists the currently specified file locations. You can create archive path items here and then assign them to one of the following settings (to specify the file location used for each of them):
Documents Path
Chunks Path
If you change Documents Path or Chunks Path, click Save Changes.
To create an archive path:
Click Create New Path (see 1 in the image below).
In the Create New Archive Path pane, select the Storage Type (2) of the path (Directory or Azure).
Enter the properties of the archive path:
Directory
Path Name
Path
Azure
Path Name
Account Name
Account Key
