#Configure Unique ID Settings

In this section, you can define a prefix for the unique ID of each folder and file in the File System.

Refer to the following steps to configure the unique ID settings:

1. Click Unique ID settings.

2. Unique ID prefix – Enter a prefix, for example, Ave**Point. The prefix combined with a ten-digit number that starts with 0000000001 will be generated for each folder and file, for example, AvePoint-0000000001.

   *Note: The unique ID prefix can be updated. The updated prefix will not take effect on the already assigned unique ID numbers.

3. Store the unique ID tothe file system – Choose whether to embed the unique ID of each folder or file into the file system metadata. If enabled, this unique ID persists even if the folder or file is relocated or renamed. It allows Opus to consistently identify the folders and files during future content synchronization.

4. Click Save to save the configured unique ID settings.
