Get Folder From Folder Action
The Get Folders From Folder Action node iterates over all subfolders located inside a specified directory and passes each folder path to the stream.
The directory can be scanned either only at the top level or recursively including all nested subdirectories, depending on the node settings.
For each discovered folder, the node triggers the following nodes once and writes the current folder path into the wildcard:
This allows subsequent nodes to process each folder individually.
Input Parameters
Folder Path Path to the parent directory that should be scanned.
Scan Recursively If enabled, all nested subfolders are included in the scan. If disabled, only the first-level subfolders inside the specified directory are processed.
Behavior
Searches the specified directory for subfolders
Iterates once per discovered folder
Writes the current folder path to {job.source}
Continues until all folders have been processed
Supports asynchronous execution
Typical Use Cases
project-based ingest workflows
processing camera card structures
batch operations on project directories
automated archive preparation
structured delivery workflows
Practical Note
This node turns a directory structure into a workflow loop. Each folder becomes a separate processing job, allowing automation to operate on entire project packages instead of individual files.
