Hi Brendan,

In Workflow, before you perform the action to auto-folder a document to another folder, you can run an action to get the folder that the active document is in, and put that  folder information into a PropertyBag. Then after the document is moved to another folder, run another action to delete the folder that is specified in the PropertyBag. This will delete orphaned folders that has been orphaned by this Workflow action.

is deleting the folder an action or must this be done via calling an external service to execute the api to delete the folder?

Hi Nathan -

There isn't a native Workflow action to delete a folder. You'd need to call out to the API to delete it.
