Hello,
Does anyone know of a way to return a folder's description?
The folder() and getcontentdetailsbyuudi() functions don't pull back that piece of metadata, unfortunately.. I see some plug-ins that will allow me to edit the description; however, I am in need of returning the Appian Folder's description to display before I go through creating a table to store and pull all the folder data all this data simultaneously.

I also don't know of any way to do this (i had to double check the "getContentObjectDetailsById()" rule which has some handy work-arounds not seen in some of the other rules, but it doesn't either). It would be an interesting bug to raise with Appian - I say "bug" instead of "Feature request" since it's inconsistent behavior not being able to access the Folder Description when we can easily get the Document Description.
Agreed.. also recently was hopefully for the findcontentbyattribute() but that also was a deadend since it only brought back Id's which i'd need another function (aka folder())
