Move file with Run Command tool (simple)

VEDH

Hi,

 

This would be the simplest thing to do via Run Command Tool. However, I am not aware about python and cmd commands. Please help me on below.

 

I've an excel file saved at - C:\Users\Public\Testing\1

 

I want to move it to - C:\Users\Public\Testing\2

 

Attached is a test workflow. I need to create the moving file workflow in container 4 (Step 4).

Take a look at this thread.  It might give you some ideas on using the Run Command tool.  Here.

I figured out...

 

Thanks to @Qiu as well, his post on other question helped me to investigate and get the desired output.

Please refer the attached workflow as a solution.

 

PS: I got to learn that next time whenever we want to execute a command, we must first try using it on CMD and then replicate that on our workflow.
