Automatically move or copy excel files

Jeison_Sabogal

Good morning community, I am requiring to create a flow in alteryx that is capable of making an exact copy of an excel and placing it in a new location that I require. There are many sheets with different formats and I won't really work with them in Alteryx, I just want an identical copy to be generated from folder A in folder B of excel. How could I do it?

Hi @Jeison_Sabogal 

If you truly don't need to do anything with the data in Alteryx, what you could do is:

1. Directory tool to read in the file paths
2. Text input to enter the destination path
3. Formula tool to generate a command in the following syntax: 'copy "Full Path" "Destination Path"'
4. Pass it into a run command tool 

Here's an example:
