Question regarding rocket_uploads paths in rocketchat

[g1patnaik]

Hi,

Thanks for the tool, it was useful with little tweaks for the version we are using.

However, I am bit confused on the paths used for attachment. My apologies to ask this question here instead of RocketChat Forum, as I was unable to get any response there. Could you kindly help me with the below query?

Is url in rocketchat_uploads collection in mongodb supposed to have an absolute path like https://site.com/\<path> or just <path>?
In one of our test instances running rocket chat version 1.x, it is using relative paths, but another instance of 3.x version is using absolute paths.

So I wonder if it is our misconfiguration in the 3.x instance, as my understanding is that the absolute paths will break once the site’s ROOT_URL is changed.
So which is the supposed way and what could cause the absolute paths in URL instead of relative paths?

Thanks in advance!
