'''IMPORTANT''' Because any file uploaded to a SmartFolder that is attached to an autoloader will be processed it is extremely important that the SmartFolder is permissioned and labelled appropriately.
 
* SmartFolders for autoloaders should be permissioned such that only contacts that need to be able to upload files for autoloading are permitted to do so.
* It is '''best practice''' to put all Autoloader enabled SmartFolders into a parent folder named '''Autoloader''' (with role-restricted access) to help ensure no inappropriate files are uploaded to the folder.
* The user uploading the file must have write permissions to the folder where the file is to be stored.
* You '''must''' not use the upload folder for any purpose other than uploading files, as the autoloader will attempt to process any file added to the folder.
