Can the folder structure be changed so that the entire DICOM data set be available in one folder?

You are most probably looking for the “AutoClassify” Python sample that is part of the Orthanc source distribution, and that takes advantage of the REST API of Orthanc:

This link is not working right now. Can you share the updated link?

Here it is:
[https://hg.orthanc-server.com/orthanc/file/Orthanc-1.8.2/OrthancServer/Resources/Samples/Python/AutoClassify.py](https://hg.orthanc-server.com/orthanc/file/Orthanc-1.8.2/OrthancServer/Resources/Samples/Python/AutoClassify.py)
In the meantime, Orthanc 1.8.0 introduced support for WebDAV, which provides an easier solution for a non-technical audience:

Should I install this plugin using this documentation?
[https://book.orthanc-server.com/plugins/python.html](https://book.orthanc-server.com/plugins/python.html)
If yes, I receive error from orthanc.log:

The two links I provided above are _not_ related to Python plugins.
1- The “AutoClassify.py” script is an external Python script (_not_ a plugin) that uses the REST API of Orthanc:
[https://book.orthanc-server.com/users/rest.html](https://book.orthanc-server.com/users/rest.html)
2- The WebDAV support is built in the Orthanc core.
In both cases, you don’t have to install any plugin.
