Hi All,

Could someone explain to me how to copy and paste the file from one location to another location without using the Run command tool.?

Regards,

Ariharan R

Hi @Ariharan

You could give blob tools a try https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/Copy-and-Paste-Excel-from-one-folder-to-another-and-add-date/td-p/792702

Hi @Ariharan

You can use this macro (it is using python), it works inside the Server too: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Community-Gallery/Copy-files-between-folders/ta-p/1056621

Hi @Ariharan

You could also use a .bat file where you can define the file you want to copy and where it should be pasted and run it as an Event of your workflow. (After Run, Before Run, On Error, etc...)

If you need and example please let me know.
