    In the first question of my Shortcut (Name the folder) you can enter the entire path.

    E.g. Horseriding/Summer 2018/Chatanooga

    It doesn’t matter if it exists or not. In case it doesn’t exist, Shortcuts will create it, and will deploy your pictures in it.

    Give it a try.

    Well, from iPad is very easy to do it directly, from the app Photos, taking profit from “Side by Side” and “Drag and Drop” features, both available since IOS 11. Just be sure you have Dropbox in your Dock.

    I enclosed a video to show you a demo for situations in which the destination folder previously exists.
