Subfolders in dynamic root folder

Hello,

I've got the following setup:

E:\FileVista\User1\Folder1
E:\FileVista\User1\Folder2
E:\FileVista\User2\Folder1
E:\FileVista\User2\Folder2

E:\FileVista\UserN\Folder1
E:\FileVista\UserN\Folder2


Permissions root folder:
Traverse subfolders and List folder contents

Permissions Folder1:
All but Create

Permissions Folder2:
List folder contents and Download


Each new user get's the same setup and I'm expecting a lot of users to be added. I tried using a dynamic root folder E:\FileVista\{user.name} which is working fine but I can’t seem to get the subfolders right. It’s possible to add the subfolders manually but then they don’t show up when editing the root folder so I can’t set the permissions. Expanding the root folder results in the obvious error ‘Attempted to access a path that is not on the disk’.

I'm looking for a way to simplify this administration process and wondering if it’s possible to do this with a dynamic root folder or is there some other way?

Kind regards,

Leandros

How about creating 2 different dynamic root folders in this format:

E:\FileVista\{user.name}\Folder1
E:\FileVista\{user.name}\Folder2

You can use the place holder variable anywhere in the path.
