Hi @razu91

You might want to use foreach loop and in that loop you can use “copy file” activity.

Hope this helps! :slight_smile:

Fine to rename the files in a folder
— use a assign activity like this
Out_Filepatharray = Directory.GetFiles(“yourfolderpath”,”*.xlsx”)

Where Out_Gilepatharray is a variable of type string array which will have file path of all excel files in that folder
— use a for each loop and pass the above variable as input and change the type argument as string the property Panel of for each loop
— inside the loop use a activity called MOVE FILE ACTIVITY where in the source path mention the value as item (the variable from for each loop which has the source file path) and destination property with file name you want to save with (mention with filepath as well to save the new mentioned file name)

For more info on that activity
