HI,
I want to create a folder within a folder using activiti workflow. I use the following code to create a folder :

var node=companyhome.childByNamePath("Sites/dmp/documentLibrary");
         if(node != null) {
            node.createFolder(bc_brandName);
         }
This code is working. Now what if I want to create a folder within "Sites/dmp/documentLibrary/Tide", Tide being bc_brandName. I tried it with the similar code like:

var node=companyhome.childByNamePath("Sites/dmp/documentLibrary/bc_brandName");
         if(node != null) {
            node.createFolder(bc_productName);
         }
But this is not working. Can anyone help me on this.

Thanks
Anand.

Hi anand6105,
Do you not get any error or log for why this is not working.

it is really helpful to provide error or log here.

Yes, I was getting an Activiti Engine Exception:"bc_productName" is not defined.
But this is not the issue, because I have defined this in the workflow, model file as well as share workflow config file. The parent folder is getting created by the same process.

This is the .bpmn file which I am using:
