We have files that are loaded on a shared drive and we use FTPS to load the files into Appian.
They are now going to change this so the root folder on the shared drive will have yearly folders:
Example folder structure:
I am trying to figure out with in a Appian Process model how I can tell it to check to see if with in Appian\Files\Upload if the year folder I am looking for exists in that directory because it may not yet.
I need to basically have it tell me if in Appian\Files\Upload does 2020 exist
Does anyone have sample code of checking for a folder on a shared drive?
Thank you

I'm not sure about cloud, but as a related note, on-prem environments do have the Appian Collab / Filesystem Utilities plugin available which may assist in similar situations.
Wouldn't it be easier to upload to file to an API created for this purpose? Then you have full control on what Appian is doing with it.
I found a way around it, the FTPS returns a FTP 550 error which means directory not found, so I am looking at the error message and when it has a 550 I know the folder does not exist. This is working so far. Thank you
