What is the Wait for Folder Action?
The Wait for Folder Action causes the script to stop running until a specific folder appears or disappears. This allows Nintex RPA LE to wait until a folder is created or deleted before it proceeds.
Creating a Wait for Folder Action
Select Files &
Folders Actions to expand the Action
list. Select the Wait for Folder
Action from the Actions list to display the
Action Builder.
Both the Timing
and Error
settings for this action may be configured
to fine tune the how the Action will run.
Note: For more information about the timing and error settings, go to Action Builder.
Enter the Folder
Path of the folder to wait for. Be
sure to enter a complete path including the root folder.
Example: "C:\MyFolder"
Select one of the following Wait
for options :
-
Folder to appear

Folder to disappear
Optionally add Notes

or functionality. When the Run Switch
is set to Run, the action
will be executed after clicking OK.
Note: The run switch is set to Run by default. To create or modify this action without executing it, click the slider to change the option to Don't Run. For more information, go to Action Builder.
