Box Output 2.5.6 - Create Dynamic Folders and Upload file

mcha54

Hi all! I'm struggling to get the Box Output to create a new Box Folder (if it doesn't exist) and then write an Excel file to that folder.

This is what my data looks like:

 

FolderFilenameDivisionSeasonProduct Code
/SU26/A ProductsASU261241431
/SP26/A ProductsASP26214214
/FA26/C ProductsCFA2612458
     

 

So I would want to see 3 new folders (if they don't already exist) and then 1 file each inside that folder.

Combining the Folder and Filename results in an error "Error while writing to XLSX file"

 

Should the Box Output be embedded in a macro with a control parameter?

Any suggestions or example workflows?

you will definitely need a batch macro - if this is possible.
