Issue

I am seeing an error when creating a ShareFile Data Source stating "Error, Invalid file path: You have entered an invalid file path" when attempting to access a file in the "Shared Folders" area.

Solution

Though there is certainly more than just one explanation for an 'Invalid File path error', one potential solution for this would be if you're attempting to use a Data Source file that's located in your Shared Folder space in ShareFile. 

We do not support pulling a file from a Shared Folder area within your ShareFile. In order to to access a folder within this program it will need to be a personal folder.
