Updating the path name in the directory tool

Hello!

 

is there a way to automatically update the path name in the directory tool? For example, I would like to update the username with the system user.

See below for an example path. Not sure how to work this out in a workflow.

 

/Users/bryanmac/Desktop/XP09/24-25

 

Best,

Bryan

If you are ok with Analytic App?

@Qiu  If I ran other tools like the dynamic rename, formulas, etc. attached to this instead of browse tool, can this workflow still run? Never used an analytic app before so just curious

yes, it will work.
The Browse tool is just used to confirm the output.
