# Get Folder From Folder Action

With the help of the Get Folders From Folder it is possible to iterate over folder paths of a folder. The folder for a desired main folder path can be scanned only on top level or in recursive way by enabling corresponding switch within the node settings. When proceeding with the node’s output „Next folder“ all found folder paths will be written into the job.source wildcard iteratively.
