Hi,
I need to move a file from a dir on a network to our own FTP server.
Is it possible to achive my using MoveFile task by basically copying file from one dir to another like
\\network\myfolder\file.txt To
ftp://ftp.mycompany.com/file.txt

Or do I have to use FTP task to move file to folder on FTP server??

thanks
 
I believe the Move File task requires an actual \\Server\FilePath format for both the destination and source. However, if your FTP:/... virtual name has a real directory name that you know, you could use that in a Move File task.

Otherwise, you'll have to use an FTP task.

So I can use something like this in File Task:

ftp.site.com/folder/subfolder/file.txt?

thanks
 
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I've been on vacation.

No, as far as I know, it doesn't allow the ftp.site.com/folder/subfolder/file.txt. You have to use an actual machine directory like C:\Folder\Subfolder\file.txt to use the Move File Task.
