Move Files from one document set to another document set using workflow

Hi All,
Env : SP 2013 Server - SPD 2013.
I'm trying to make a SPD Workflow that must copy a  files from one Document Set to another Document set in the same library other document library  
Does Someone already get success for Copy  files from one Document Set to another Document set?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to move Files from one document set to another document set using workflow.
I recommend to use the custom workflow activity  Copy List Item Extended Activityto
copy files to another document set.
You can do this with codeless SharePoint Designer workflows as long as you can install the
Codeplex Custom SharePoint Designer Workflow Activities. 
These activities are also built-in to SPD2013. However, you can only use the custom activities in the SharePoint 2010 Platform.
To install the custom activities, please follow the steps as below:
Download the solution file form
Useful Sharepoint Designer Custom Workflow Activities
Copy the wps file to the Disk C.
Open the SharePoint 2013 Management Shell.
Run the command: add spsolution c:\ dp.sharepoint.workflow.wsp
Open the Center Administration, click System Setting->Manage Farm Solution-> dp.sharepoint.workflow.wsp->Deploy to one or more Web Application.
Open the SharePoint designer, create SharePoint 2010      Platform workflow, add action from Custom Actions.

  • .DS_store won't let me move files from one external drive to another

    I am trying to move some music files from one external harddrive to another.  They are both connected to my mac mini.
    In the "from" harddrive I have a folder with a bunch of music files in it and it also has a new file in it called DS_store. When I open this folder and select all, it naturally selects all of my music files and this DS_store file.  When I try to drag all of this to the "destination" harddrive I open the folder that I want to drag them to which already has some music and it has the DS_store file too, it won't let me drag the files to it   It says something like there is already a DS_store file there.  So I tried deleting that file from each external drive and it just reappears.
    If I create an empty folder in the destination drive, I can drag all of the files to it.  The problem is I want the new files to be in the same folder with the older files.  
    In addition there are a few other ghost type files that have shown up too.
    Any suggestions would be welcome.  Thanks.

    If you're copying from a FAT-formatted volume, do as below.
    Back up all data.  
    Select the text on the line below by dragging across it. Don't include the blank space at the end of the line. Only the text should be highlighted.
    dot_clean -m
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.  
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Now switch to the Finder and and select the icon of the FAT volume. Drag into the Terminal window. More text will be added to what you entered.
    Click in the Terminal window to activate it, then press return.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear. Then quit Terminal and try the copy again.

  • Can I move files from one hard drive to another without replacing/duplicating existing files?

    Long story short, my work purchased a Macbook Pro and copied all of my files from my iMac to my new Macbook Pro. I've had to work on my iMac before my laptop was fully ready and now I need to transfer more files over to my Macbook Pro.
    Is there a way that I can drag contents from my profile folder (documents, downloads, etc.) to my Macbook without have to moving 100+ gbs of information. Basically, is there a way that the computer can recognize that "Folder A" already exists on my Macbook Pro and it will not ask to replace that folder?
    I am sorry of my question is vague; I'll rephrase if necessary.

    Well, if you drag the contents of your "Documents" folder (on iMac) into your new "Documents" folder (on MacBook Pro) for instance, and choose "Do Not Replace" while checking the "Apply to All" box, it will only transfer new items (this does not include updated items). Now if the new items are in folders that exist under "Documents", then you may need to go into individual folders and repeat this process. That's the only way I can think of doing it. I'd hold off to see if anyone else has a better answer. Good luck!

  • Can I move files from one caralog to another?

    Can I move files from one caralog to another?

    No. you cannot.
    This, among many other reasons, is why multiple catalogs are not recommended.
    (You could import the photo into another catalog, and delete from the first catalog ... and without first using the command File->Write Tags, you will lose your tags, captions and other metdata; version sets, stacks, album/collection membership are lost in any case)

  • Ssis - move files from one directory to another and rename destination file if present

    Hello,
    How is it possible to move files from one directory to another directory and if the file already exists in destination directory then rename it?
    Thanks

    1. Use a foreach loop with file enumerator pointing to first directory.
    Inside loop have a ssis variable of type string to get filename (@[User::FileName])
    Choose option as Fully Qualified in loop
    2. Add another variable called @[User::DestFileName], set EvaluateAsExpression true for it and set expression like this
    REPLACE(@[User::FileName],<source directory path>,<destination directory path>)
    put actual paths in above expression in your case
    and another variable called @[User::RenameFileName], set EvaluateAsExpression true for it and set expression like this
    REPLACE(@[User::FileName],".","_old.")
    3. Create a boolean variable say @[User::FileEXists]
    4. Add a Script Task inside the loop and pass @DestFileName variable in ReadOnly mode and FileExists in ReadWrite mode
    Inside Script Task write code as per below
    http://blog.dbandbi.com/2013/11/13/check-file-exists-ssis/
    5. Add File System Task choose operation as Rename File, Select IsSourcePathVariable as true and select @[user::DestFileName] variable and IsDestinationPath variable as true and select @[user::RenameFileName] variable
    6. Choose ExpressionAndConstraint option for precedeence constraint from ScriptTask to above File System Task and choose constraint as OnSuccess and expression as
    @FileExists == True
    7. Add another File System task with operation as Move File Select IsSourcePathVariable as true and select @[user::FileName] variable and IsDestinationPath variable as true and select @[user::DestFileName] variable. Join Script Task as well as
    File System Task above to this task and choose constraint as OnSuccess and Multiple Constraint option as Or (dotted line)
    Then once executed it will work as per your requirement

  • Can't move files from one volume to another

    Using the 1.2 client on SLED, I don't appear to be able to move files from
    one volume to another. I have two drive "mappings", each to a
    different volume on a NW65SP5 box, but when I try and cut and paste files
    I get an error saying "Not on the same file system". However if I drop to
    a terminal and just use mv, that works.
    Is this a known issue?

    Hmm, yep get the smae problem when trying to move files.
    Copy works just great though.
    I know there are some issues in Gnome/Nautilus that's being worked upon.
    These are outlined in the Readme. For example it's not possible to copy a
    folder from Server A to Server B, then delete the folder form Server A.
    Finally later on copy the folder back to Server A from Server B.
    Also Gnome is leaking file handles, which could be the cause for the
    problem we're getting here.
    I'll ask my contact at Novell about this and have him enter it in as a bug
    if it's not a known issue.
    For a workaround you already have a good alternative of using mv in a
    terminal.

  • Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

    Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?  The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function.  Am I missing something?  It was so easy with Windows.

    Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

    Hello,
    Do you know what the difference between copying a file this way :
    ** Fast & simple file copy. */
    public static void copy(File source, File dest) throws IOException {
    FileChannel in = null, out = null;
    try {         
    in = new FileInputStream(source).getChannel();
    out = new FileOutputStream(dest).getChannel();
    long size = in.size();
    MappedByteBuffer buf = in.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, size);
    out.write(buf);
    } finally {
    if (in != null) in.close();
    if (out != null) out.close();
    ================SECOND WAY============
    AND THIS WAY:
    // Move file (src) to File/directory dest.
    public static synchronized void move(File src, File dest) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
    copy(src, dest);
    src.delete();
    // Copy file (src) to File/directory dest.
    public static synchronized void copy(File src, File dest) throws IOException {
    InputStream in = new FileInputStream(src);
    OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(dest);
    // Transfer bytes from in to out
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int len;
    while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
    out.write(buf, 0, len);
    in.close();
    out.close();
    And which is better? I read up on what each kind of does but still a bit unclear as to when it is good to use which.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Move files from one folder to another javascript?

    I am running a 3-action droplet automatically using windows task scheduler.  Here are the 3 steps:
    1.    Batch file to move files from hot folder to processing folder
    2.    Run IPP (dr brown's image processor pro) using preloaded settings to make several sizes copies of the files.
    3.    Bat file to move the files from processing folder to archive folder.
    The problem I am observing is that Step 1 works and IPP begins to run.  It only processes the first few images, and then moves on to the 3rd step where the bat file is ran to move all files from processing folder to archive folder.   The trouble is, only a few images were processes (about 10 or so), yet all of the images get moved to the archive without being processed.  Is there a way to make sure that step 2 (IPP) doesn’t begin until all files have successfully been moved from the hot folder to the processing folder?  IPP starts right away and files are still being transferred to the processing folder.
    Does anyone have a script that will move files from one folder to another? 

    I'm sure I have see a way to close down Photoshop in a Photoshop script.  I never had the need to.  It may be a simple statement like app.close(); I don't know javascript and only hack Photoshop script mostly by looking at others code.  app.close(); is a guess on my part. Let me try it. I was wrong its photoshop.quit();
    So make your MoveToArchive.jsx look something like this
    try{
       var BAT = new File(Folder.temp + "/MoveFilesToArchive.bat");
       BAT.open("w");
       BAT.writeln('Copy /Y "c:\\Process\\*.jpg" "c:\\Archive\\*.*"');
       BAT.writeln('Del "c:\Process\\*.jpg"');
       BAT.close();
       BAT.execute();   // execute the temp bat file
    }catch(e){
    alert("Bat MoveFilesToArchive  failed to execute.");
    photoshop.quit();

  • How do I move music from one apple ID to another

    How do I move music from one apple ID to another?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID to another existing ID you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data (including the calendar) to the new account.  To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPad.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (Note, this will delete the account from your iPad but not from iCloud.  The account will remain in iCloud if anyone else chooses to remain signed into it an continue to use it.)  Next, set up the new iCloud account using your new ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.*  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    * If you only want to upload the calendar, only turn Calendar to On; but I'm assuming you will be the owner and want this to be your iCloud account on your iPad with all your data, and then your can share the calendar with others and administrate it.

  • How do I transfer files from one external HD to another?

    I would like to move files from one external hard drive to another exter hard drive.  I can't seem to make a file on the drive I want to copy files to.  I'm new to the apple world, normally I would be able to do that easily with a PC.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Should you find that reformatting a HDD is required, all user data will be erased in the formatting process.
