# FileShare

File-share channel option payload for Document API distribution.

> **Compilation status:** This type is defined in `Business\SAIF.Business.Policy.Audit.ApiCalls\DistributionMethod.cs`, which is present in this library's source directory but is **not** listed in the `<Compile>` item group of `SAIF.BOF.Business.Policy.Audit.ApiCalls.csproj`. It is a source-included artifact and is not part of the compiled `SAIF.Business.Policy.Audit.ApiCalls` assembly's public surface.

## Purpose
- Describe where the generated document should be named and dropped when a file-share route is used.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Policy.Audit.ApiCalls`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Policy.Audit.ApiCalls`

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DistributionMethodType | `public string DistributionMethodType { get; }` | Exposes `FileShare` as the discriminator for this delivery-channel payload. |
| FilePrefix | `public string FilePrefix { get; set; }` | Prefix applied to the file name when the document is written to the file share. |
| FolderName | `public string FolderName { get; set; }` | Target folder the document is dropped into on the file share. |

## Behavioral notes
- The class inherits `DistributionMethodType` from `DistributionMethod<FileShare>`.

## Constraints and usage notes
- Folder-path semantics are defined by the downstream service, not by this library.
