Monitor for new folders not triggering
Posted: Fri Jan 18, 2019 10:54 am
Hi,
I made a task that is supposed to trigger when a new folder is created in a directory:
- The directory is located on a network drive: P:\ARTWORK-DATA\A_Artwork data
- include masks set to *.*
- Filters: Watch for new files / Watch for changed files with everything checked / Monitor files / Monitor folders
- Interval set to 5 seconds
- Save changes: Save changes to files, save in common list
The action is simply not triggering. From indesign I package a new artwork, which generates a folder in P:\ARTWORK-DATA\A_Artwork data which contains several files including a .PDF which I would like to copy.
I also tried setting the mask to *.pdf and setting the folder to include subfolders. No avail either.
A side note: The folder P:\ARTWORK-DATA\A_Artwork data contains 5000+ folders and 30.000+ files.
Is the action not triggering because the folder contents is simply to big to index?
