In assigning the $_script variable instead using this line: // "do shell script" &" \""& "mkdir -p ~/'desktop/FMExports/myfolder'" & "\"" and after that substituting the myfolder with the $_id you can have all covered in one script line with simplified syntax: "do shell script " & Quote(GetAsText("mkdir -p ~/desktop/FMExports/" & $_id)) I have it tested with your file and it worked fine for me. Let me know what you think. Hi Agi,
small suggestions in your script steps. In assigning the $_script variable instead using this line:
// “do shell script” &” \”"& “mkdir -p ~/’desktop/FMExports/myfolder’” & “\”"
and after that substituting the myfolder with the $_id

you can have all covered in one script line with simplified syntax:

“do shell script ” & Quote(GetAsText(“mkdir -p ~/desktop/FMExports/” & $_id))

I have it tested with your file and it worked fine for me. Let me know what you think.
