MOVE FOLDER

Synopsis

MOVE FOLDER qualified_name TO FOLDER 'folder_path';
MOVE FOLDER qualified_name TO FOLDER 'folder_path' IN module_name;
MOVE FOLDER qualified_name TO module_name;

Description

Moves a folder (and all its contents) to a different location: another folder within the same module, a folder in a different module, or a module root. The folder’s contents (documents and sub-folders) move with it.

The source folder is identified using the standard qualified name syntax: Module.FolderName. For nested folder paths containing /, use double quotes: Module."Parent/Child".

Target folders are created automatically if they don’t exist.

Parameters

qualified_name
The source folder in Module.FolderName format. Use double quotes for paths with / or special characters.
folder_path
The target folder path. Use / for nested folders.
module_name
The target module name (for cross-module moves).

Examples

Move a folder to a different module

MOVE FOLDER MyModule.SharedWidgets TO CommonModule;
