Copy or Move Files

This workflow copies/moves files from one folder to another based upon text in the file name.Steps are as follows:1. Grab the divison number from the file name2. Create the destination filepath using the division number3. Convert starting and destination filepath strings to URIs4. Complete the copy/move Generic Loop Start and Variable Condition Loop End This workflow explains the combination of the 'Generic Loop Start' Node and the'Variable Condition Loop End' node.
