# Create Directory

### Overview

The **Create Directory Component** allows users to create a directory on an FTP server, ensuring that the specified path exists by creating any missing subdirectories.

### Usage

This component connects to an FTP server and creates a directory at the specified path, making it useful for workflows that require structured file storage.
