NodeNode / Source

Transfer Files

This node supports the path flow variable to specify the source and destination location. To convert the created path column to a string column which is required by some nodes that have not been migrated yet you can use the Path to String node. For further information about file handling in general see the File Handling Guide.

This node copies or moves files from a source (folder or file) to another folder. The node offers options to either copy or move a single file, a complete folder or the files in a selected folder, with the option to include subfolders, to a specified folder. If the "Delete source files (move)" option is checked the node performs a move operation for which the source files will be deleted after the copying process is done.
