Sorting out a folder (tree) of a folder-structure

[Joerg Schober]

Hi,

having this structure:



Folder

file 1

file 2

-folder2

--file2.1

--file2.2

-folder3

--file3.1

--file3.2









I want to sort out folder2 and the 2 files within folder2, i.e. the tree "folder2" and remain the rest of the structure.



is this possible?



Kind regards,

Jörg

Hello, by "sort out" do you mean that you want to not send them to the next element in your flow? If so, should they be deleted or left in place?

Hi,

they should be deleted.

You could use a "Submit hierarchy" for input folder, select the connection to next process and set the "Exclude folders" option to "Regular Expression" with the value "^folder2$". That will exclude any folder named "folder2" from being processed.

Works, thanks.
