Create a folder

Create the ID of a folder and define the path to the location of the folder. Additionally, you can shorten the path to the folder location using the {{Id}} format.
For example, you can create a folder with the Id defined as ROOT and the folder path set to \\AVEVA\Main\October2024. When you create a sub-folder ErrorReport and store custom data in the sub-folder, you can use the shorter folder path {{ROOT}}\ErrorReport to access the data in different screens. The resolved folder path for {{ROOT}}\ErrorReport is \\AVEVA\Main\October2024\ErrorReport.
