Extra slash added to file path from transaction

Help Studio

We are seeing extra \ being added to the folder path when it is coming in from the transaction.

Something like this
Folder path : C:\User\Folder\Output

Will become this
in_BaseFolder : C:\\User\\Folder\\Output

May I know from which transaction?

You can replace doubly slash with single slash.

The extra slashes don’t hurt anything. They are probably there just as an escape character. The developer wasn’t creating the folder before trying to write into it.

Hi @djz ,

Are you cloning item or adding it with the help of activity ?

It usually happen when we clone item.

No. We aren’t cloning it is just that when UiPath displays the folder path it has \\ and that threw us off into the wrong direction when debugging our error.
