Rename File:

Move a file or Rename a file

I am trying to insert the following senetence file.move(oldpath,newpath) But I don’t know which activity I must use because I tried to use “Assign” but It is shown a windows “Expresion does not produce a value” Which activity Can I use to Move a file? Is there a way to Rename a file? I don’t see in the options the method “Rename” for a file

To get the path of the last updated file use this code (put it in an Assign activity for example) :
PATH = Directory.GetFiles(download_folder).[Select](Function(x) New FileInfo(x)).Where(Function(f) f.Extension.Equals(your_extension)).OrderByDescending(Function(x) x.LastWriteTime).Take(1).ToArray()(0).ToString()

dowload_folder is the path to your download folder. The place where the file has been uploaded.
your_extension is the type of file you are looking for. For example if you want to get an Excel file then write → “.xlsx”

And in case you need the original name of the uploaded file then write :
NAME = Path.GetFileName(PATH)

For Renaming your file you “move” the file to the same folder (with Move File activity), just with a different name.

Tell me if it’s ok for you

@Camille361 here in the Function(X) so X stands for?

[Camille361 (Camille)]

You don’t need to define x. Just write it like that in the activity.
