Move one or more files or folders from source to destination directory on a remote server in a data efficient manner without downloading data to local machine.
| File | Details |
|---|---|
| Source | Path and name of the file or directory that will be moved. Input supports file masks · Learn file masks and wildcards & advanced SFTP wildcards To relocate multiple files and multiple file types, even if located in different remote directories, use | vertical bar character to separate files. Combine lists, variables, or wildcards. For example:
|
| Destination | Path (and, optionally, name) of file or directory where file or directory will be moved to. Note that destination ending with / (slash character) designates folder, without / (slash) designates new name for a file or directory (must not be used when moving multiple files or directories).If file or folder with the same name already exists at the destination, it will not be overwritten. |
| Use connection | Select an existing connection to use for file moving. If there are no defined connections, the new connection window will be opened to establish a connection to FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or DigitalOcean Spaces server. |
| Variable Wizard |  Use dynamic data input—substitute a parameter from a file, web, connected Trigger, other Actions, date and time presets, etc. |
