How use `grafana_dashboard_folder` for create sub folder?

[batazor]

I would like to take advantage of grafana 1.11's ability to create subdirectories, unfortunately now if I do grafana_dashboard_folder: Boundaries/Link Boundary - I get a Link Boundary folder

Is there any way to create sub-directories now?

@batazor In my case I'm using the dashboard sidecar and I suspect there is a limitation due to the k8s-sidecar itself so potentially not fixable via Helm chart update?

This is a docker container intended to run inside a kubernetes cluster to collect config maps with a specified label and store the included files in an local folder

I can be wrong but it does not seem to support "folder in folder"

I also noticed this note (recently added?) to Grafana provisioning doc

NOTE This feature doesn’t currently allow you to create nested folder structures, that is, where you have folders within folders.

I have the same problem.

apiVersion: v1
data:
  dashboard.json: |-
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  annotations:
    grafana_folder: folder/sub-folder
  creationTimestamp: '2025-02-27T12:21:23Z'
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/managed-by: Helm
    grafana_dashboard: '1'
  name: dashboard

And what im getting is sub-folder being created in the dashboards root folder and not under root/folder/

Any update on this?
