An Identifier is a base-64 encoded string that identifies the source of a document in IDOL Server. When you use a connector to index documents into IDOL Server, an identifier is added to every document, in the AUTN_IDENTIFIER

A connector can use the identifier to extract the original file from the repository. An application might need to extract the original file when presenting the results of a query. The application can request the file by sending a collect
