No, you cannot control which folder the system writes the files to. Do you have a use case for needing to?

Hello Midge,
Folder getting created in Appian is ok. I am talking about Folder getting created inside accdocs, in File share server, where appian actually Save those document

Can we control folder creatation which is done by System? Currently system is saving all document in one folder inside accdocs 2.

Cheers

How are the users uploading the documents? Is it via a process which dictates which folder the document is being stored? If that is the case then that is the reason all uploaded documents are currently being stored in that one location.

Documents are usually uploaded via a process and you can also create folders via a process. There is no limit to the number of folders you can create.

The developer decides where to upload documents. The system decides where to create the new folder and store the document which can be one of the three folder structures accdocs1, accdocs2, or accdos3.

I do not know the pattern if there is one.
