Batch Macro with Multiple Files Not Generating Output

Hello - I've created a batch macro using the directory tool which is supposed to run multiple files in the specified folder. However, the output from the macro is blank. Has anyone run into a similar issue?

Hey @jc333,

Would you be able to share you macro to have a look at?

Put a Browse tool after your macro and try again.

Other than that, we would need to see how the action tool is setup and what kind of data is being fed to the control parameter. Sharing the actual macro instead of a screenshot would be good too so we can see other tool settings.
