%s_wf_folder% and %s_wf_name% don't seem to work

Hello,

I am trying to watch some folders that are named the same as my workflow, so for example I am using:

C:\Watermarking\Vendors\%s_wf_name%

But anything submitted to this folder doesn't get processed.

I have also used the %s_wf_folder% var and that seems to have the same problem.

If I remove this var and select the folder that is named identically to the workflow folder or name then it works.

Any ideas?

Thank you,

Neil

Hi Neil,

Variables are not supported in monitors as they are populated when a job exists. Only statics are supported. However, some variables are pretty static, like the ones you're trying to use. However, these fall between the cracks but is something we should take a close look at.

Thanks for reporting! :-)
