is file observer recursive?

Post by tsolignani » 26 Aug 2019 07:35

Can I use to trigger a flow with a root folder event when events (f.i. writable file closed) happen into its subfolders?

Thank you

Yes, it is recursive. Try to add a trigger on the parent folder and creat some new file or edit the file inside the subfolder. It will trigger and gives you the {path} as the path from the set parent path.
