Search and Replace Sub Folders Name

[Charltonpaul]

Is it possible to search for a sub folder name and then replace the folder name with something else?
I can get it to work for the folder at the top but not any other folders.

You could use the inject job or inject wildcard apps to get the folder into Switch. Once you inject the folder, rename and place it back using the hierarchy.

If I understand you correctly, Job.NestedName will return the sub directories in your top-level folder, which you can then target for further processing.

Screenshot attached. Basically the flow retains the existing folders. The folder "supplied" is constant every time and never changes, the other folders are different each time.

I would like to change the folder supplied to another name.

Hope this make sense

I'm assuming you have the job number as privatedata? the 602571? If so use inject, set is a a repository, set the path to the root of the job number folder.
eg: /Volumes/JobServerName/[Job.PrivateData:Key="job_number"]

Job Name would be 'supplied'

Then in the Name job after you can use Custom and change it on the inject or once in switch you can use a rename also.

You would also need to set the 'Delete after injection' to Yes.

Here is the result, the first is injecting and not renaming it via the inject, second is the rename using the inject. From here you would jsut need to put it back to the location is belongs to on the server.

Another completely different method would be to use a script via Execute Command or Run Command, that searches for the job number then to the 'supplied' folder and renames it without inputing any of the files into switch.
