Also ended up using https://jira.corp.adobe.com/browse/SKYOPS-92534 as a request to update documentation - not sure when it will be implemented or still in Queue.

This is the link we used - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/operations/maintenance?lang=en#purge_tasks

Hi EktaAg Currently, the job is limited to the global path /content. Configuring custom paths or restricting it to specific content areas isn't supported at that time. We ended up using the default config as-is. The only thing we were able to change is number of versions to 5.

I am on the AEM as a cloud service and yes this could be a good OOTB feature as my client also requested the same.For now I provided a report of shared links using the OOTB Assets > Report (Shared Links report) which has more details than the OOTB UI.@BrettBirschbach 

Here is the update from Adobe: As the DirectBinary does not create(not a bug) the folders and the documentation specifically says the folder must exist - see [1]. The logic to create folders is included in the higher level FileSystemUpload wrapper - see https://github.com/adobe/aem-upload/blob/maste...

I am still working with Adobe on this @kautuk_sahni 

Thanks @sarav_prakash  for the information provided. I think it might be this one but will await further announcement. https://developer.adobe.com/experience-cloud/experience-manager-apis/api/experimental/assets/author/

Thanks for the response - the folders are created dynamically based on the new products created and they are using a similar command as above.The aem upoad library recommended seems to have an issue so working with Adobe support on this as of now.

@sarav_prakash @kautuk_sahni Any update on this ? Please see - https://github.com/adobe/aem-upload/issues/131  

Hi all I have posted this on the github of the aem-upload library but would appreciate anyone here also can chime on this? https://github.com/adobe/aem-upload/issues/131
