When performing a search via the web UI by going to Admin > Compliance > Discovery, there is a hidden column named “Location”. I say hidden because it is only available when using the “Only export metadata CSV” option. The field “Location” is not available via https://lucid.readme.io/reference/searchdocuments. How do I get the document location via API?

Currently, you can use the `parent` field of the return Document Resource and a subsequent request to Get Folder to find additional information about that folder.
However, I recognize that the `Location` field you reference can contain additional information when the `parent` isn’t a Lucid folder. Can you elaborate about what information the Location field is providing which is valuable to you?
Although I can not provide any time estimates, we recognize that the PublicApi version of document discovery has some discrepancies with the in-app experience and are evaluating what changes should be made to bring them back closer together.

I am investigating your question now and will be in touch.

+2When a user is delicensed via SCIM, their documents are tranferred to the “default document owner” specified in https://help.lucid.co/hc/en-us/articles/4424978583444-Lucid-admin-panel-Compliance-settings#default-document-owner-for-deleted-or-delicensed-users.
The “Location” field for these documents are used like a comment field with text such as “From %userEmail% / %title%”. I want to use this field to locate documents transferred from the previous owner.
