Copy File activity
The Copy File activity copies a file from an SFTP server (source host) to another SFTP server (target host).
| Variable | Description |
|---|
| sourceHost | Name or IP address of the server containing the files you want to transfer. |
| sourcePort | Port number to use to communicate with the source server. The default port number is 22. |
| sourceFilePath | Full path to the file to copy from the source host. |
| targetHost | Name or IP address of the server to which you want to move the files. |
| targetPort | Port number to use to communicate with the target server. The default port number is 22. |
| targetFilePath | Full path to the copied file on the target host. |
| tempFileSuffix | Temporary suffix to use when moving a file. If this field contains a value, the activity deletes the duplicate target file, if it exists, and then copies the source file to a temporary file using targetFilePath + tempFileSuffix as the name. Upon completion, the activity renames the file to the actual target file name. If this field is blank, the activity copies the source file directly to the target file and overwrites it, if it already exists. |

| targetCredentialTag | Specific credential tag this activity must use to run SSH commands on the target host. |
