Configuration interface for actions of type Save with WebDAV.

Parameters

Files: Selection of files to be saved. Files from previous actions, files from upload items, process attachments or form files can be selected. See Actions for a list of supported URL protocols.
WebDAV connection: Selection of a connection to save the file.
Path: Extending the WebDAV connection just selected. If no entry is made, the root directory is assumed as the storage location. If a directory is entered that does not exist, the action tries to create this directory. Click on the button "Show existing files and directories" to display and select the target folder. Please make sure that the appropriate permissions are available for the target directory. If necessary, contact the system administrator for more information.
Allow folder structure in placeholders: If this option is activated, placeholders can contain path segments of the form '<folder name>/<folder name>'. Otherwise, the path separator ('/') is removed from the placeholder. Navigational references to parent file folders are not allowed and will be removed.

Here the sub-folder y has been selected and z has been appended, which will be newly created.
