I have noticed that flow force has the above function avaliable, however im not too sure how it is used and if what i am trying to achive is possible.

I basically have multiple triggers and want to be able to move the trigger file in to its own "processed" folder. I thought I could achive this with a file move to the below:

tiggerfile = "/mnt/ftp/user1/out/sample.xml"

concat(parent-directory("{triggerfile}"),'/processed/')

however this does not appear to work. Has anyone has got this working before?
that

Curly brackets have no special meaning inside quotes. You can enter this instead:

{parent-directory(triggerfile)}/processed/
