I am using FME Flow 2026.1.1. The trigger for the automation I created is Resource of Network Directory (updated). 

I have a folder that FME Flow can read/write to/from. This is the Directory to Watch. This folder is in Resources.

Events to Watch for is set to CREATE.

The Poll Interval is 1 minutes. 

The automation is supposed to trigger when a file is added to the folder. But it is not triggering. Is there something else I need to do when using this type of trigger or maybe another trigger? I tried setting the Events to Watch for to CREATE, MODIFY, DELETE and the automation still did not trigger. Any ideas on how to get a Directory Watch to trigger when a file is added to a folder?
