Copy File/Folder
UiPath.MicrosoftOffice365.Activities.Files.CopyItem
Uses the Microsoft Graph Copy item API to create a copy of a file or folder and add it to the same or a new parent folder (Destination folder).
After the copied item is added to the
Destination folder, the activity returns a
DriveItem
object (Reference as) that you can use as an input variable in subsequent
activities.
Scopes
This activity requires the following scopes:
- Sites.Read.All
OR
- Sites.ReadWrite.All
In the Body of the Activity
- File or folder to copy -
The file or folder to copy as a
DriveItem. This object can be retrieved using the Find Files And Folders activity. Use the output property variable from the Find Files and Folders (First or Results). If you're using the Results output property from the Find Files and Folders activity, specify the item in the array that you want to use (e.g., myWorkbooks(0)). - Destination folder - The
directory to which this item is copied as a
DriveItem. This object can be retrieved using the Find Files And Folders activity. If left empty, the user's root folder is used. Use the output property variable from the Find Files and Folders (First or Results). If you're using the Results output property from the Find Files and Folders activity, specify the item in the array that you want to use (e.g., myWorkbooks(0)). - New name (optional) - The
name of this item after it is copied. If you copy a file, include the file
extension that you want to apply to the copy (e.g.,
"CopyExcelQuickstart.xlsx"). This property supports
