Add Folder ​

Creates a new folder in Autodesk Vault at the specified path, or retrieves it if it already exists.

Purpose ​

Use this task to ensure a target folder structure exists in Vault before uploading files or running further Vault operations. It is particularly useful when onboarding new projects or generating structured filing hierarchies as part of an automated workflow. If all folders in the path already exist, the task simply returns the existing folder without error.

Inputs ​

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
Folder PathTextYesThe full Vault path of the folder to create, e.g. $/Designs/Project001/DRAWINGS. All intermediate folders in the path will be created if they do not already exist.

Outputs ​

NameDescription
NewVaultFolderThe Vault folder object that was created or retrieved. Downstream tasks can pass this to file upload or other folder-based operations.
