Ian Clelland commented on CB-5677:
----------------------------------

Hi Jonathon,

This will be possible with the new version of the File plugin (on dev branch right now). When you upgrade to the new version, you'll need to put a {{<preference>}} tag in your {{config.xml}} file that looks like this:

{code}
<preference name="AndroidPersistentFileLocation" value="Internal" />
{code}

That will cause it to use the internal storage for file references. Using {{value="Compatibility"}} will use the old storage locations.

> Hi,
> We are using the File plugin to store files onto device storage. For the confidentiality, these files cannot be visualized by the user outside of the application. We would like to force to use INTERNAL storage but the "requestFileSystem" function returns still a path to the EXTERNAL storage in the case where a media is mounted. Is it possible to improve the plugin by supplying a new parameter in the "requestFileSystem" method specifying if we prefer to use INTERNAL or EXTERNAL storage.
> Kind regards,
> Jonathan Barette
