Hi

Generally the quickest solution would be to extract all the images within their subfolders onto a parent folder directly which is not a supported future. However if you search for ways of doing it you can see them an example is here and here

Once you do that I am sure you can create the dynamic link to folders in excel which you can find in search results such as this one
