How to setup workflow that movies files from a specific location on a shared to another

Hi,

 

Having trouble setting up the end of my workflow. I need to be able to move edited filed at the end of my workflow from a specific folder on a shared drive to another path. What tool should I use to run this function?

Hi @jsilavong, you use the Run Command tool to move files around, but you will need to know how to write the code. I recommend installing this tool here, which is really easy to use and does what you need. I use this a lot.

Thanks @gabrielvilella do you by chance have a template of what the code would look like in run command tool?
