Use Sub Folder

Determines if error files are kept in a subfolder next to the processed files instead of in the error container.

When enabled, the generated Data Factory pipeline writes error files to the container of the files being processed, in a subfolder of their folder that is named after the Error Container value. When not enabled, error files go to the container named by Error Container, under the same folder path as the processed files.

The setting only has an effect when the pipeline moves files on error. That requires OnError Landing Files or OnError Source Files to be enabled and an archive connection of an Azure storage type (Blob Storage, Data Lake Storage, or File Storage).

When to Change This Setting​

Enable it when error files should stay in the same container as the files they came from, grouped in a subfolder of their folder.
