v8.1.43

The workflow for creating a task to send specific project resources is quite painful, and it doesn't help that you can't create EAM tasks from the Designer like you can with tags. I'm trying to create a task to send global resources to a fallback HMI edge project, but only resources from particular folders, and it's incredibly slow. Each folder might have 100-300 resources within them, and I have to manually check each checkbox for every resource within the folders to send them... It's a nightmare. And if extra resources are added into these folders they would then need to be manually added to every EAM task that is sending them which is prone to forgetting to add them.

I would rather specify resource paths with wildcards to use. E.g. `Views/Shared/Templates/*; Style Classes/*`, or regex patterns would be more flexible.

Is this something that was improved in 8.3?

I totally agree

> With EAM, I would like to be able to sync ressources between gateway by selecting them with a more convenient way, for example: folder regex on ressource path In this way, each time we add some ressources, we don't have to modify the task to add the newly created ressources. I d'ont know if I missed something for this use case, otherwise, this can be a feature request: [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Agent+Task+-+Send+Project](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Agent+Task+-+Send+Project)

> I perhaps miss something, but EAM can't sync folder of ressources between gateways. We have to check each ressources, and if we frequently add new ressources in the source, the process is painfull. Putting all the ressource we want to sync in a project inherited could be a solution but we ofen have too many inherited project and edition need to launch too many designer. IMHO EAM sync folder could be very usefull to sync folder of ressources between gateway, more over the only solution for ed…
