Create File/Folder Variables node should support nested flow variable for EACH variable

[kundeng]

Did I get this correct:

One can specify a variable to override the path component for all the variables, but it’s impossible to override each path variable’s path differently.

e.g.
I want pathA to use $$locationA$$ for the path, and pathB to use $$locationB$$ for the path.
I think my question is related and similart to:

String Array as flowvariable in Create Folder node

I was creating the concatenated strings manually. Example: “nombres” STRING: 00A00_Indra_Training,00A00_Indra_Training_FS,00A00_Indra_Training_FS_simple) 00A00_Indra_Training,00A00_Indra_Training_FS,00A00_Indra_Training_FS_simple and then used these variables with a “Create String Array Variable”. But apparently it isn’t working. So I modify the wf to use a “Create Collection Column”, and now I get the arrays with that “white space”, and Create folder node works. Thanks.

Hi @kundeng,

Welcome to the forum.

Yes, you’re right that you cannot change the base location of the Create File/Folder Variables node via a flow variable. However, you can modify the folder structure within the base location by specifying subfolders directly in the Value field.

For example, if your base location is /data/output, you can set the Value to something like pathA/results

This will resolve to /data/output/pathA/results without needing to change the base path itself.

Best,
