Hello,

I was wondering if I can create a script on automation Blocks to create folders on desktop. for example if I were to run a script to exports jpegs, a csv file and and quicktime video, can it also create a folder where all my files can be stored in one location? or do I have to create a folder on my desktop before running my script? Thank you in advance for the help.

thanks,

Hi @Mathias Moehl thank you so much for your quick response. I got that function working but was wondering if there is a way, automation blocks can automatically create a folder based on my sequence name? I was playing witha few options and didn't get what I was looking for.
I am attaching a screengrab for vis. Thank you so much!!

Hello @evelyn_6350,

Thanks for the question. Since it is about Automation Blocks, we'll have to await a response from our Adobe Expert @Mathias Moehl, however. I'll have to ask for your patience as he lives overseas, as it may take some time for him to respond. I hope that's OK. Sorry for the frustration.

Thanks,
Kevin
