Question

Execute workflow process when user renames folder

Workflow Version 10

Updated June 7, 2019

asked on March 2, 2016

I want to have a Workflow process when the user renames a folder. So far I have setup the conditions as the following...

EventType = "Entry Changed:

If all of these conditions are true...

User does not equal <MyWorkflowUser>

Entry:Path equals <ParentFolder in which folder is renamed>

Entry:Type equals Folder

It is possible the user could change some metadata on that folder and I don't want to execute the workflow under those conditions. I only want to execute it when they rename the folder. Is there a way to indicate in the Conditions to only execute the Workflow when the folder is renamed?

You could try adding a condition to your starting rule for:

Entry Changes - Do Not Include - Template Field Set

That would cover that specific use-case but what I would really like to do is exclude all conditions except the renaming of the folder.

There is currently no way to single out a rename event in Entry Changed events.
