A better way to deal with relative path (not working with one drive)

Hello all,

Here the issue : I have a workflow in my One Drive folder

In that workflow, I use a macro that writes a file with a relative path (..\6_Big_Data\EN\.csv ) :

Strangely, it doesn't work and the error message seems to relate to a folder that doesn't exist (but also, not the one I have set)

ErrorLink: Output Data (1): https://community.alteryx.com/t5/*/*/ta-p/724327?utm_source=designer&utm_medium=resultsgrid|Cannot access the folder C:\Users\saubert\OneDrive - Business & Decision\Documents\B&D_Market\6_Big_Data\EN\.


I really would like that to work :)

Best regards,

Simon
