I am writing a script that I would like to store some information in.

I’d like it to save to the build directory (`Built banks output direcotry`), like `project.exportGUIDs()`.

But there doesn’t seem to be any other path-related functions besides `project.filePath`.

Is there any other way to get the directory?

After some more searching, I found the answer in the forum:  
[Changing path a .bank builds to with command line - FMOD Studio - FMOD Forums](https://qa.fmod.com/t/changing-path-a-bank-builds-to-with-command-line/14420/2)

Just use:  
`studio.project.workspace.builtBanksOutputDirectory = <some directory>;`

This doesn’t appear in the documentation though, so maybe it’s an oversight?

I’m happy to hear that you figured out a solution, and thanks for pointing out the missing property in the documentation. The Scripting API docs for `studio.project.workspace` (and other areas) are a little lacking, so I’ve flagged them for updating on our internal feature/improvement tracker.
