ftpCreateFolder Step
Description:
This step creates a folder on the FTP server.
Inputs
- ftpConnection – Select FTP from FTP connections dropdown
- destinationFolder – The relative path of the server to create folder. Ex: - /folder1
Returns
- True – step executed successfully
- False – step failed to execute
Usage:

To use this step, you must configure an FTP connection in the FlowWright application. To do so, navigate to the Integrate—Connections—FTP page and create a new FTP source.

A sample FTP connection configuration is included here for reference.

Example:
Let’s build and execute the “ftpCreateFolderDef” example.
- Create a new process definition called “ftpCreateFolderDef” and open the definition in designer mode.
- Drag an “ftpCreateFolder” step to the canvas.
- Connect the dots between the “Start” and the “ftpCreateFolder” steps, as shown above.
- Define a variable or a global to store the FTP folder path.
- Click the “ftpCreateFolder” step to configure its “Required” properties. Provide a name for the step. Select the FTP connection from the drop-down list. Click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button for the Copilot to add new process steps that match your process description.

- Click the “ftpCreateFolder” step to configure its “Optional” properties. Provide the path to create the FTP folder. Click the Save button.

- The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures the workflow progress and the percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.

- Save the process definition, create a new instance, and then execute it. Render the process instance. Click the process step to view its properties. The step should create a new folder on the FTP server.
Definition Sample:
You may download the sample definition(s) from the link here and later import them (drag-and-drop) to your FlowWright Process Definition (XML file) or Form Definition (HTML file) page.
Note: Please verify and complete the process steps for any missing configurations, such as file path references and database connections, after import. Then, save the definition to confirm the changes.
