Automation of subfolders to keep the same pattern as the parent.
Is there a way to enable all new subfolders to automatically have the same automation as the parent folder, or even the grandparent folder? As far as I can see there isn't one.
An automation to convert any file in a folder to a pdf is not applied automatically to any subfolder. This should be possible in order to facilitate the process. Currently we have to do this manually.

Hey there jeromemuller, thanks for posting on our Community and happy Monday!
This should actually be possible now as I just gave it a go and it worked fine for files I uploaded to the sub-folder of the automated parent folder.
Can you give it a go again and let me know how it goes? Just click the folder where you’d like to add your automation> Click Add automation> then Convert Files to PDF. Note that you can personalize from there, and include files in all sub-folders as well.
I hope this helps and please keep us posted, Jerome.
Hi Walter!
Thank you for your feedback!
Unfortunately, it keeps not working! See the image below. The file 'Test file - comment expense' in the parent folder 'SecuChatExpensePlugin' has a converted PDF version. The same file is put into a sub-folder 'jerome.muller' and does not convert into a pdf version, nor does it happen to the file shared in our chat solution and automatically synced in the sub-sub-folder 'Expense Plugin Demo'.How did you configure it? When I try to do it at the configuration, there is no option to apply the same to sub-folders...
Thank you!
Jerome
