Salve, devo salvare un file csv nella Sd Card External del mio Samsung S7Edge tramite un Activity Starter ma non trovo la soluzione.
Se uso il blocco File, mi salva il file csv nella memoria interna del cellulare.
Non sono riuscita a trovare informazioni in merito, qualcuno mi può aiutare, grazie.
the higher the Android version of your device, the less likely you will be able to do it

This example uses the @Taifun extension:

- You write in the TextBox a file name of the asset (uno.txt, kio4.png, gato.mp3) and choose in which SdCard you want to save it.

It depends on the device.
My mobile is a Redmi 7 Xiaomi (not rooted) with Android 9.
My removable SdCard is an 8 GB microSdCard.
My Guardar_SdCard app is installed (Build) on the mobile.
In my new app I have added my extension: KIO4_Terminal, you can execute LINUX commands mkdir, cp, rmdir, …
In my Xiaomi - Android 9 I can create, delete directories … in the removable SdCard.

- My extension KIO4_Terminal does not return a response.

Thanks for the information Juan Antonio. Yes, it does depend on the device as to what works.
I built the app. The app copies to /storage/emulated/0/ fine. It does not store to the physical sd Card on my Samsung Android 8.1 Tablet . I checked Settings>APPS>//Guardar_SdCard_2>Permissions ; the Storage indicates permissions are set. Screen1.AskForPermission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE works (since the app does have the permission), but the device does not allow writing.
Great this works on Android 9; it is still not working on the external sdCard (works fine on the 'internal sdCard).
Your code and extension does create/delete directories on the internal sdCard. Thanks. 
Using the KIO4_Terminal.aix extension I have executed the LINUX: mount command to check how the SdCard is mounted on my Xiaomi 7 mobile (Android 9)
I get that mount is of type sdcardfs
Then I install the same SdCard on a Huawei 9+ (Android 6) and I get a type fuse mount. (I cannot create directories on a removable SdCard with this mobile)
Perhaps it is the type of mount fuse vs sdcardfs that allows or not, to be able to write to the removable SdCard.

Great job, Juan !!!
I tested it on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 (Android 9) and it really works!
But unfortunately not on a Galaxy Note8 (Andorid 9).
When I run borrar_terminal.aia on Note8, I get the following result (Label1.txt):
Label1.txt (7.4 KB)
I don’t think so. I only attached it for better reading.
No, I just copied & paste it.
OK.
Mount type is sdcardfs
/mnt/media_rw/9C33-6BBD on /storage/9C33-6BBD type sdcardfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,fsuid=1023,fsgid=1023,gid=9997,mask=18)
/data/knox/sdcard/150 on /storage/emulated/150 type sdcardfs
It's a real shame that there is no way to save to the SD card.
