Question

I work as software tester entry level and I was given a task to save my log files to the specific folder on my company website and this website only can be accessed internally by the company employees. So far I know how to save file onto the site, but how would I check which specific folder is already there before I save the file to it?

    private void SaveLogsTogWeb(string file)
    {
        try
        {
            //create WebClient object
            WebClient client = new WebClient();

            client.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

            client.UploadFile(@"http://myCompnay/MyProjects/TestLogs/" + file, "PUT", file);
            client.Dispose();
        }
        catch (Exception err)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(err.Message);
        }
    }

Thanks in advance for the helps

One way would be to put a dummy file in that folder (dummy.txt) and do an HTTP GET of the file. If you can successfully do that, you can then assume the folder exists (barring any virtual folders, etc.)
