Export for screens with subfolders organized by artboard
Often I am having to export multiple file formats for all artboards in a single working file. E.g. when sending a group of signs to a printer, they will want an individual native .AI file, a PNG full-res preview, and a JPG thumbnail. Currently, you can create subfolders based on Scale or Filetype, but it would be immensely helpful if there was the ability to create subfolders based off of Artboard Name, since it is often the specific design that someone is looking for.

Oh, I love it. Not sure anyone ever requested this, to sort the exported items by their artboards (there was this one, about sorting the list of assets by artboards though: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31408063).
There is this quite old now MultiExporter script: https://gist.github.com/TomByrne/7816376
Forked many times, but not exactly modified... but it doesn’t offer the functionality you seek.
Not sure about this extension either: https://github.com/TomByrne/IllustratorSmartExportYou can try to modify these to perform the sorting you seek...
And I’d really love to have it from the box in Ai. Upvoted, thanks.
