When a publication is published, the folder created on the server has a name like the following: GUID-536483FC-B5AA-491D-8DFB-15DD3900E56D.792101.20180327035629496. Does anyone know what the number is between the GUID and the time stamp (792101, in this example)?
Hi Dana,
This middle number is the internal language ref (lngref) value of the publication output object that gets published.
From your sample folder name you should be able to verify this by looking at the contents of the metadata file of your publication object (GUID-536483FC-B5AA-491D-8DFB-15DD3900E56D.met)
Within this file you will see the value '792101' as the value of the attribute 'ishlngref' available on the ishobject element.
Do keep in mind that this naming convention will disappear as of SDL Tridion Docs 13 SP1 as the publishing code is reworked. So from that version onwards, the folder created during a publishing request is just a random string, not containing any reference towards the publication that is being published.
Kind Regards,
Raf

Hi Dana - To allow you to assess and prepare, this is what we currently have on the test bench for Tridion Docs 13 SP1 (13.0.1)
We hereby mitigate the fixed Windows OS path depth limitation of 260 characters where some setups run into.
