[SalesForce] Specify a fie path for External SFTP Marketing Cloud

I need to drop a file on an External SFTP from Marketing Cloud which I know I can do with a file transfer activity but I can only choose a pre-defined file destination. In that destination setup in Admin, I don't have a place to specify the file path for an external SFTP like I do for the SFMC Enhanced SFTP. Any ideas on how I can do this?

When you choose "External SFTP" as the location type, your Url field should have the absolute path to the ftp folder you need to access.

Example: sftp://ftp.domain.com/folderForSFMC/

You can find your folder's absolute path by viewing the folder in an FTP client and right-clicking on the folder to "Copy URL(s) to Clipboard" (that's the option in FileZilla).
