@javieramatus , in the directory tool you can check the box to 'include subdirectories' which will pull in all files in all folders from a certain directory path

Thank you Michelle , but  do you know if I can know the name of the subdirectory?

@javieramatus , you will be able to see the subfolder name as part of the Fullpath or Directory columns once you run the workflow. You can extract the subdirectory name from that string (e.g you can use Text to Columns to split on the '\' characters).
