Copy / Move
AI-generatedSummary
Copy or move files and folders within Synology Drive by specifying source paths and a destination folder, optionally removing the source to perform a move.
Inputs
- Paths (JSON Array) (required) — A JSON array of paths to the source files or folders to be copied or moved.
- Destination Folder (required) — The target folder path where the files or folders will be copied or moved.
- Remove Source (Move) — Boolean flag indicating whether to remove the source files or folders after operation (true for move, false for copy). Defaults to false.
- Extra Params (JSON) — Additional API parameters as a JSON object to customize the call.
Output shape
a JSON object representing the operation result from Synology DSM API
The output contains a success flag and may include error details on failure. The operation returns immediately without waiting for the copy/move process to complete, as it starts the process asynchronously.
Examples
Example 1: Copy multiple files or folders to a destination folder without deleting the source
Set Paths to a JSON array of source paths, Destination Folder to target path, Remove Source to false or leave unset.
Example 2: Move files by copying then removing the source
Set Paths to source paths, Destination Folder to target, and Remove Source to true.
