copy folders in files area to different group files area


 

How do I copy folders that are in the files area of one group to the files area of another group? In other words, I want to copy several files that are in a folder to a different group files area. Other than copying one at a time from a download.
Please don't tell me to read the manual. I have done a search and not found the answer. We are swamped here with rescue activities. == baxter, llama /alpaca rescue, small group

There is no function to copy files from one group to another. You can't even do it across subgroups.

Try this:

If you export the Files area of the source group, all the files in that folder should be intact and together (?/helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/exporting-or-downloading-your-group-s-data/exporting-your-group-s-message-archive-and?).

You can then upload the resulting folder to the destination group in one go. You don't have to upload each file one at a time.?/helpcenter/membersmanual/1/working-with-files/uploading-files-and-folders?

Please note that file and folder metadata (description, ownership, date/timestamps, etc) will not be retained.

Regards,
Bruce
