The file path structure for these types of export files depends on the Cloud drive mappings (click for details). The correct file path for these location settings varies, depending on your office's policies and procedures, as well as the file structure on your workstation or your network.

\\CLIENT\C$\ - Use this file path for your local workstation. You can add to this file path, based on your workstation's folder structure.

How to find your file path
If you are not sure how to construct your file path or if you want to use a network drive that does not follow one of the common file path formats described here, you can use the Network Drives app to determine the correct file path.
Launch Network Drives.
Use the file explorer to navigate to the desired folder.
Right-click on the path, at the top of the file explorer window.
Select "Copy address as text" to copy the desired file path to your clipboard.
Paste the file path into the preference.
