FTP - Rename or move file/directory

FTP - Rename or move file/directory

Moves or renames a file or directory on the FTP server. Giving the same directory with a different name renames the item; giving a different directory moves it to the new place. Useful for organizing processed files or applying naming conventions automatically.


Options

Connection

Select the FTP: Connect action that will be used to reach the server.

Current path

Enter the current path of the file or directory on the FTP server.

New path

Enter the new path or name of the file or directory. To rename, keep the same directory and change only the name. To move, give a different path.

Returns

This action has no returns.

Rules and Conditions

  • Every field is required.
  • To rename, the parent path must be the same — only the final item name changes.
  • To move, the destination directory must already exist on the server.
