Good day,

 

I would like to ask for benevolent ideas on how I create a folder in a shared drive. Let's say I'd like create a folder name Aug2022 Vulcan Route in a network drive. I am reading ways like using "CMD" but I'm not well verse in macro.  If there are other ways not using macro, please provide me workflow how? If your solution is macro, please help me understand how I can achieve in running it. Below is a screenshot a took from other conversation. Please advise what entry should I need to enter to be able to successfully create a folder in the network drive and save my file. Also where I can save the macro to be able to read by the main workflow.

@KamenRider you may look into this thread. They solved a problem similar to yours: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/Dynamic-Create-File-Directory/td-p/946

 

Alternatively, if you want to create the folder and move some files there in your workflow, you can use the File Copy-Move SDK macro for that.
