Application Deployment - Copy File task syntax


RPA

Recommended Posts

Within Application Deployment custom pak I'm trying to utilize 'copy file' task to copy some files to the installation directory.  I select the file for the existing file path (it was added in with the files), but I'm at a loss for how I select the location machine location for the 'New File Path' dialog.  If I put in "C:\somefolder" for example, it creates folder structure on the SD Server, not local machine.

I am experiencing the same issue. I can CLI copy the file to the remote pc i need. however cannot copy using the File copy Application pack built.

I have the source file, in with the Files and the New File path as C:\folder.  i have tried with quotes and without. 

each time it copies it to the local C drive of the smart deploy server.

To copy a file to your machines, in the Copy File/Folder Task, Existing File/Folder Path, press the Select button to select the file that you are transferring.  Then, in the New File/Folder Path field, enter where you want the file/folder to go on your endpoints (C:\Program Files (x86)\AppCompany\AppMaker32\Sample.File.dll).  To get this path if it exists on your admin PC, just click the Browse button and browse out to it.  I was replacing an existing file so I checked the Overwrite Existing box.  The instructions above assume you have already added your desired files you want to transfer to the Application Pack.  I did this on SmartDeploy Console 3.0.2015.2588.
