File Automation
File automation refers to the automation of tasks you perform with files and folders on your computer, such as creating, copying, or renaming files and folders. StudioX comes with multiple activities that automate tasks you perform with files and folders.
If you want to repeat the same activities for each file in a folder, add a For Each File in Folder activity, and then add the activities to repeat inside it.
Additionally, you can repeat the same activities for each folder in a folder by adding a For Each Folder in Folder activity, and then adding activities to repeat inside it.
