MOVE

Synopsis

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

Moves a document to a different folder or module. Supported document types are PAGE, MICROFLOW, NANOFLOW, SNIPPET, ENUMERATION, and ENTITY. When moving to a folder, missing intermediate folders are created automatically. Cross-module moves change the qualified name of the document, which may break by-name references elsewhere in the project.

Entity moves only support moving to a module (not to a folder), because entities are embedded in domain model documents.

Parameters

document_type: The type of document to move. One of: PAGE, MICROFLOW, NANOFLOW, SNIPPET, ENUMERATION, ENTITY.
qualified_name: The current Module.Name of the document to move.
module_name: The target module. When specified without FOLDER, moves the document to the module root.
folder_path: The target folder path within the module. Use / for nested paths (e.g., 'Orders/Processing'). Enclosed in single quotes.
