Usage Notes
For security reasons, the pub.file:checkFileExistence service checks the input fileName parameter against the list of allowedReadPaths values specified in the fileAccessControl.cnf file. If the input fileName is not on the allowed list, Integration Server throws an exception. For information about configuring the fileAccessControl.cnf file, refer to File Access Control Configuration for the pub.file Services.
