Hey mahesh, you can simply maintain the folder in any constant then just pass the constant in to integer function, for example your constant name is EXAMPLE then make a rule like tointeger(cons!EXAMPLE) it will simply return you the ID of the document.

You will want to look at the Custom Content Functions shared component at:
forum.appian.com/.../summary
which allows you to use the custom function findFoldersByName().
