Hi,

I need help to solve this issue.

So I have this flow for users to fill in custom form data of the vacancy name.

Eg: Executive

Then i use recorder function to save the file downloaded into the Executive folder.

I have tried this flow and it works!

But the thing is, they want to change the name of the folder structure in SharePoint.

Before this, it looks like this:

It's pretty straightforward and the flow works. But they want to change the structure to this:

Do you guys have any idea on how to ignore the 'SRF00*-' and get the name of the vacancy only for me to save the downloaded files into the vacancy folder filled in by the user?

Thanks !

Use for each and loop through the folders
Then get tha folder path
By the current item
Then use regex and take the value which you required by using parse text activity

Hope you understand

Use the Get subfolders in folder action to get the folders available in the directory. Send the vacancy value as a variable into the "Folder filter" field with an asterisk (*) before it as a wildcard. This will return a list of folders. You can use the first item of the list as %Folders[0]% for the folder you need.
