====== Folder Type ======

A Folder value is a path to a folder, directory, or zip archive. It's the required input to the [[Workdir]] container — see [[Workdir Type]] for how that container turns a Folder path into an active working directory — and it's also what [[Folder Junction]] picks between when choosing one of two possible folders coming from different execution pipelines.

===== GUI Editor =====

[{{ :editors:folder_editor.png?nolink |Graphical representation of the folder editor}}]

The folder editor presents a browser for selecting the target folder, directory, or zip archive, or typing its path directly.

===== EGO Script =====

A Folder constant is written in [[EGO Script]] the same way as a [[String Type|String]] literal, enclosed in double quotes:

<code>
"c:/data/"
</code>
