Where is the history located?

Hi,

can anyone tell me where the chat history is saved for the spark client?

I intend to know the location (directory) where all the conversation can be fetched from.

Please help me out with this.

Hi Shweta,

Spark writes the files to “%USERPROFILE%\spark\user\JID\transcripts” where JID is your JID like "foobar@example.com".

Hi LG,

Please let me know where is “%USERPROFILE%\spark\user\JID\transcripts”.

I am unable to find any such location.

Hi,

You can find all your configuration in:

c:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_PC_USER\Spark\

Or in linux /home/YOUR_PC_USER/.Spark

For example, my history files are in: c:\Documents and Settings\francisco\Spark\user\francisco@jivesoftware.com\transcripts\

Regards,

Francisco

Hi,

if you are using Linux or OsX you may find the user folder in $HOME/Spark or $HOME/.Spark - a linux/OsX user may know the right location.

Hi Francisco,

Thanks.

Thats what I was exactly looking for.

So I was able to find all the transcripts for my user. Is it as easy as copying them into their new workstation folder and magically show up? Or is there some import function so they are available on their new spark install?

You can just copy them. If user’s profile is the same on the new machine (user@domain name), then it should use copied history files.
