Hello,

can I make Folder Structure in Solution Studio Online ? 

like we could in Solution Studio

I need to do something like this in Sharepoint with Skybow. 

What could be now the best way to do it? In the past I could realize it with Solution Studio.

 

Kind regards

Nicole

  Hi Nicole

  There's a "Create new folder" Action available which can be configured on buttons to create a folder (configure multiple Actions for multiple folders).
  For your case create on the NewForm several "Create new folder" Actions on the "Save" button after the existing "Save Form" Action.

  You can even read folders from a "template library" and create per returned folder a new folder inside new Dossier's folder:

  Hello Christof.

  can you show me how you get the items of the template folder in this action as example?

  

   

  Kind regards

  Hi Nicole
  
  Sure, it's just the "Get items" action with default parameters like the library containing the template folders:

  If you have more than just one level of folders in the folder structure - use the following expression on the Folder parameter of Create new folder action:

  

  var filePathParts = [[@Actions.Loop_apply_to_each.CurrentItem]].FileRef.split('/');
  var libindex = filePathParts.findIndex(element => element == 'InternalNameOfYourTemplateFolderLibrary');
  filePathParts.splice(0, libindex+1); //remove part to library
  var libRelFolderPath = filePathParts.join('/');
  var dossierFolderPath = [[@Web.GetFirstValueForQuery([[@Web.ServerRelativeUrl]]+'/InternalNameOfYourTargetLibrary', '<Where><And><Eq><FieldRef Name="LookupToDossier" LookupId="TRUE" /><Value Type="Lookup">'+[[@Actions.Save_Form.ItemID]]+'</Value></Eq><Eq><FieldRef Name="FSObjType" /><Value Type="Integer">1</Value></Eq></And></Where>', 'FileRef')]];
  return dossierFolderPath.substring(dossierFolderPath.lastIndexOf('/')+1,dossierFolderPath.length)+"/"+libRelFolderPath;

  ! replace the bold written names with the names of your own libraries/column
