The settings in the Spotfire.Dxp.Worker.Host.exe.config file are common to both the Automation Services and also the Web Player services.
The allowedFilePaths in the spotfire.dxp.worker.host.exe.config is used by the analysis file data source e.g to open file from a shared drive, and the one in the Automation configuration is used for exporting the files in txt, pdf, sbdf formats.
