How to use Folder.userData properly

Hi all,

I'm trying to understand how to properly write a few lines of code involving Folder.userData.

When I declare a folder path which of the following is correct?

var myFolderPath = Folder.userData + encordeURI("/MyFolder");

var myFolderPath = Folder.userData.absoluteURI + encordeURI("/MyFolder");

var myFolderPath = Folder.userData.relativeURI + encodeURI("/MyFolder");

They all seem to work. Which is the best choice though?

Then, I'll continue with the following:

var myFolder = new Folder(myFolderPath);

Since it's a Folder object, I think I'd do it this way:

var myFolderPath = Folder.userData.path + "/" + Folder.userData.name + encodeURI("/myFolder");

var myFolderPath = Folder.userData.path + "/" + Folder.userData.name + encodeURI("/myFolder");

Hi Dan, thank you for answering!

It looks like any of the following return the same string:

Folder.userData.path + "/" + Folder.userData.name

Folder.userData.absoluteURI
