Import empty folders when importing using Import Agent

asked on May 28, 2019

We use a standard sub-folder structure in all of our account folders on a network drive, so every account folder has the same folder structure. Some of these sub-folders are empty, but need to continue being there going forward. When using Import Agent to migrate these account folders into LF, only the folders containing documents are imported and the sub-folders that are empty vanish. Is it possible to have Import Agent keep these empty folders and import them alongside the folders with documents? 

 

Using Import Agent 10.3.1.470 and the monitored folder is a network drive

 

Thanks,

Taylor

Hi Taylor,

It does not look like Import Agent will allow you to do this.  Sub-folders can be created, but not empty ones.

May I suggest a small workflow that starts when a new folder with a particular name is created by Import Agent?  It could create any sub-folders that have not been created.
