Before clicking submit: Please check if your query is already addressed via the following resources:
- Official documentation (searchable and regularly updated)

I’m currently trying to setup up one or more folders which are shared, but don’t need to stay around forever. The idea is that these work like WeTransfer or Swisstransfer.
I have gotten it to work tagging all the files within the designated folder. But I can’t figure out how to tag the subfolders within that shared folder so I don’t have a countless “husks” over time.
The issue is that I can’t figure out how to exclude the parent folder without also excluding the subfolders.
Auto tagging only for files - #8 by alexanderdd ← If I just wanted to tag files this would work great.
Is there even a way to do this? Otherwise since this will be a half manual process to begin with setup the file retention manually isn’t a big deal either.
Thanks!
