Hi,

You can not use all JS functions on SOTI MobiControl. To create a new folder you may prefer below function:

var folderPath = '/sdcard/Download/Zafer';
new mobicontrol.io.File(folderPath).createDirectory();

So overall code, when we add this to your function would be as below:

var folderPath = '/sdcard/Download/Zafer2';


checkFolder();
function checkFolder() {
var foldercheck = new mobicontrol.io.File(folderPath);
if (foldercheck.exists) {
mobicontrol.log.info('Folder exists');
 
}
else {
mobicontrol.log.info('Folder does not exist.')
newFolder();
};
}
newFolder();
function newFolder() {
new mobicontrol.io.File(folderPath).createDirectory();
}

I hope it helps.

And i would recommend not to use a "." in a folder name (original post).

And the creation of your ini file is missing as well which can be done like this:

var iniFile = new mobicontrol.io.File('/Path/Filename.ini');
if (!iniFile.exists) {
iniFile.createFile();
}

I agree with Rafael,

And thanks, I forgot the ini file :)

.ini file can be created by putting some values inside of the .ini file as well that allows us to read some data and list on MobiControl WebConsole.

Example as:

var file = new mobicontrol.io.File('/sdcard/Download/user_name.ini');
var textContent = "[User]\n UserName=Zafer";
file.writeText(textContent);
