DAM update asset workflow on folders

Can DAM update asset workflow be executed on folders?

I copied the OOTB Dam update asset workflow and then executed that to the folder, it didnt work. 

 

*ERROR* [JobHandler: /var/workflow/instances/server0/2020-09-29/dam_update_asset1_60:/content/dam/foood] com.day.cq.workflow.compatibility.CQWorkflowProcessRunner Process execution resulted in an error: com.day.cq.workflow.WorkflowException: execute: gatekeeping failed, asset [{/content/dam/foood}] in payload doesn't exist for workflow [{VolatileWorkItem_node1_var_workflow_instances_server0_2020-09-29_dam_update_asset1_60}]. com.day.cq.workflow.WorkflowException: com.day.cq.workflow.WorkflowException: execute: gatekeeping failed, asset [{/content/dam/foood}] in payload doesn't exist for workflow [{VolatileWorkItem_node1_var_workflow_instances_server0_2020-09-29_dam_update_asset1_60}]

There's surely some inconsistent issue with the OOTB DAM Update asset workflow. I had to recopy the workflow and then use the 2nd copy. since the first copy wouldn't work on folders containing assets.

    Hi @shaheena_sk 

     

    check out this documentation to run the workflow for multiple assests.

    https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/experience-manager-65/assets/using/assets-workflow.html

     

    You can also use acs commons bulk workflow manager to run the workflow for multiple assets.

    Thanks,

      Have you tried the other way around:

       

      1. Select folder containing assets.

      2. Click on Timeline from left hand side toggle.

      3. Click on Start workflow and select the dam Update Asset workflow.

       

      Check the workflow instance from crxde: /var/workflow/instances/server0

      If error messages do not provide much info, then put debug log on com.adobe.granite.workflow.core and com.day.cq.workflow and replicate the issue.

        Hi @shaheena_sk ,

         

        Are you trying to execute the workflow on empty folders?

        If the folder you want to publish includes an empty folder, the empty folder is not published.
