We are setting up ORD using our states configuration files. The default location for the files is C:\IDOTCAD_ORD. I would like to move these to our cloud (OneDrive) to share and manage for our company. Below is a portion of the workspacesetup.cfg file. Towards the end there is a line # _USTN_WORKSETSROOT = $(MY_WORKSET_LOCATION)/. It looks like I can uncomment and change this line to the OneDrive directory, is that correct? I would like to use the same path for everyone, but OneDrive would require C:\user\username\OneDrive\...\IDOTCAD_ORD. Is there a way around the user\username?

#============================================================================# Civil Organization Standard Location #============================================================================# Organization standards are base standards for a country or region or a# large asset owner such as a DOT. These standards should be the base that# provide most of the settings needed for OpenRoads Designer. Additional # company specific and project specific standards can be layered onto the# the Organizational standards using the WorkSpace and WorkSet respectively.## By default Organization standards are located at# \ProgramData\Bentley\OpenRoads Designer CE\Configuration\Organization-Civil\## The default location can be changed using the MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT variable.# To redirect the entire configuration folder to a network location, uncomment the# MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT line and replace the network path with the appropriate network path.## <<<< Make Changes Here >>>>#MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT = c:/Configuration/Organization-Civil/
%if defined (MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT) && exists ($(MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT)) CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT = $(MY_CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT)%else CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT = $(_USTN_CONFIGURATION)Organization-Civil/%endif#----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#============================================================================# WorkSpace Standard Location#============================================================================# WorkSpace standards are extensions or overlays to an Organization standard.# A common use for WorkSpace standards is for company or client standards.# Organization + WorkSpace + WorkSet = OpenRoads Designer Environment## By default WorkSpace standards are located at# \ProgramData\Bentley\OpenRoads Designer CE\Configuration\WorkSpaces\## The default location can be changed using the _USTN_WORKSPACESROOT variable.# To redirect just the WorkSpace folder to a network location, uncomment the# following line and replace the network path with the appropriate network path.## <<<< Make Changes Here >>>>#MY_WORKSPACES_LOCATION = c:/Configuration/workSpaces/
%if defined (MY_WORKSPACES_LOCATION) && exists ($(MY_WORKSPACES_LOCATION)) _USTN_WORKSPACESROOT = $(MY_WORKSPACES_LOCATION)%endif#----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#============================================================================# WorkSet Standard Location#============================================================================# WorkSet standards are extensions or overlays to a WorkSpace standard.# A common use for WorkSet standards is for project specific standards and data.# Organization + WorkSpace + WorkSet = OpenRoads Designer Environment## By default WorkSets are children of WorkSpaces and are stored in# a sub folder of the WorkSpace. In other words, each WorkSpace has its# own set of WorkSets. The default location is a sub folder named WorkSets. For example,# \ProgramData\Bentley\OpenRoads Designer CE\Configuration\WorkSpaces\{workspace name}\WorkSets\## If the WorkSpace is redirected to the network using the MY_WORKSPACES_LOCATION# variable as described in the previous section, the WorkSet is automatically# redirected to that same network location and no changes are needed in this section.## If you choose to store the WorkSet in a different network location from# the WorkSpace standards, this section should be used. When WorkSets are# stored at a different network location than the WorkSpace, they are still# a child of the WorkSpace and they must still be organized with parent folders# named the same as the WorkSpace. These folders must be created manually.# Optionally the WorkSets could be stored in a separate folder from the WorkSpace# but be aware that this can cause users confusion because it is possible to create# new files in a WorkSet (project) using incorrect WorkSpace standards. To use this# optional method storing WorkSpaces and WorkSets in separate folders, uncomment the# _USTN_WORKSETSROOT = $(MY_WORKSET_LOCATION)/ line below and deleted or commented# out the line above it.## To redirect to a network location, uncomment the MY_WORKSET_LOCATION line and# replace the network path with your network path. This is the root path# where the WorkSets are located and does not include the required# WorkSpace folders that must be created manually.## <<<< Make Changes Here >>>>#MY_WORKSET_LOCATION = //MyNetwork/MyWorkSpaces/

Long story short, there have been major concerns placing any Bentley configs or working files on OneDrive.
