SFTP - Create directory

SFTP - Create directory

Creates a new folder on the SFTP server at the given path. It can create the whole directory hierarchy at once when the recursive option is enabled, with no need to create each level by hand.


Options​

Connection​

Select the SFTP: Connect action that will be used to reach the server.

Path​

Enter the full path of the new directory to create on the SFTP server.

Recursive​

Defines whether the intermediate folders of the path are created automatically when they do not exist. Select Yes for recursive creation or No to create only the last level of the path.

Returns​

Custom code​

js
actions["action-id"].created // whether the directory was created or already existed (Text)
actions["action-id"].path    // path of the directory created (Text)

Field selection​

  • created — result of the operation: created when the directory was created, or already exists when it already existed (Text)
  • path — full path of the directory on the SFTP server (Text)

Rules and Conditions​

  • The Connection and Path fields are required.
  • With Recursive enabled, the whole folder hierarchy of the given path is created when it does not exist.
  • Without Recursive, every intermediate folder of the path must already exist on the server.
