Note
This can be an application relative URL (eg ~/IndexDirectory) or an absolute file path (eg. c:\inetpub), however it must already exist and the ASP.NET user (either ASPNET, NetworkService or an impersonated user) must have permission to write to it.

<add key = "keyoti-search-admin-default-directory" value="~/IndexDirectory" />

Hide Index Directory Selection Option

The option to change the Index Directory the web app. works with can be removed by adding the following line to the web.config;

<add key = "keyoti-search-admin-allow-select-directory" value="false" />

Save Index Directory Path

You can save Index Directory paths to a drop down list by entering the Index Directory you would like to work with and selecting Save.

Note
1. A file must exist called IndexDirectoryPathStore.txt in the application directory.
2. The ASP.NET user (either ASPNET, NetworkService or an impersonated user) must have permission to read/write to the file.
