[mapguide-users] Mapguide Library Folders

The name of the folder is random, and generated by MapGuide.
AFAIK, there is no way to retrieve the path.

Instead, you can call GetResourceData and retrieve the file:
http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/index.html

Click "GetResourceData" to the lower left, fill out the ResourceId and 
DataName and click Submit.

You can mimic the POST generated by the html form to do the same from a 
program.
That is what the MaestroAPI does, when using the http connection, so you 
can also use that to retrieve the file.
