Folder Exists

Description​

The Folder Exists activity checks whether a specified folder exists in IB Drive.

The activity returns a Boolean value indicating whether the folder was found.


Common settings​

Use Process Data to bind supported inputs to workflow values or upstream outputs. See Common Activity Features for shared execution, error-handling, and output-persistence settings. Availability depends on the activity.

Design-Time Configuration​

Display Text​

Specifies a user-defined name for the activity.

The display text appears on the workflow canvas and can be used to identify the purpose of the activity.


Folder​

Specifies the IB Drive folder whose existence needs to be checked.

The folder can be specified using one of the following methods:

MethodDescription
Select DirectorySelect the folder by browsing IB Drive using the folder picker.
By IdSpecify the unique IB Drive item ID of the folder. This is the default method.
By PathSpecify the logical path of the folder within IB Drive, for example /Agents/InvoiceProcessing/Input.

The value can also be provided dynamically using workflow data.

This property is required.


Execution settings​

Configure Wait All Incoming when execution paths converge, and On Error for failure handling. Select Inherit where available to use the workflow-level error policy.

Outputs​

Exists​

Indicates whether the specified folder exists in IB Drive.

ValueDescription
trueThe specified folder exists.
falseThe specified folder does not exist.

The returned Boolean value can be used by downstream activities or workflow conditions to determine the appropriate execution path.


Remarks​

The check does not modify the folder. An item moved to the Recycle Bin is not considered present at its original location. With By Path, supply the complete logical folder path.
