Synology DSM File Station operations

Copy / Move

AI-generated

Summary

Copies or moves a file or folder from a source path to a destination folder on a Synology DSM File Station, with optional overwrite.

Inputs

  • Source Path (required) — Absolute path on DSM to the file or folder to copy or move. Sent to the API as a single-element path array.
  • Destination Folder Path (required) — Absolute path of the destination folder. The source is placed inside this folder; no new name or create-parents parameter is sent.
  • Move Instead of Copy — When true, the source is removed after the copy, making the operation a move.
  • Overwrite — When true, an existing destination file with the same name is overwritten.

Output shape

The JSON output is the response returned by the DSM API call; the node does not transform it further.

For each input item, the operation returns the raw DSM API response object from the selected FileStation API/method, wrapped as the node's JSON output. If the call fails and Continue On Fail is enabled, the item is replaced with an error object containing message and details.
