Hi @Sayali_Rokade1

If you want to get files from a directory you can use Array_string_var=directory.getfiles(“your folder path”)

or
else if you want to directories from a directory you can use Array_string_var=directory.getdirectories(“Your folder path”)

Thanks

@Robinnavinraj_S so for multiple folders we used Array_string_var=directory.getdirectories(“Your folder path”) so in this scenario we need to take to different for each or for each inside for each that i did not understand exact steps

hi @Sayali_Rokade1

let us take a example for your case

as of my understanding your main folder has multiple folders so you want to loop the sub folders also right ??

In that case

Array_string_var=directory.getdirectories(“Your main folder path”)

use for each activity to iterate the Array_string_var

inside that for each

Array_string_var2=directory.getdirectories(“item.ToString”)// your for each iterative variable

and use another for each activity to iterate the subfolder (Array_string_var2)
inside the 2nd for each activity you can do what you want

Thanks
Robin
