In this example, we are passing the required parameters to the function transformation object using a Variables object. We will be moving a “Test.xlsx” source file to a different destination file folder.

Where,

filePath = C:\Users\Kanwal.Azim\OneDrive - Astera Software\Desktop\Test.xlsx

newFilePath = C:\Users\Kanwal.Azim\OneDrive - Astera Software\Desktop\TestFileMove

Right-click on the function transformation object and select Preview Output. While the Data Preview will not generate an output. Upon opening the destination file location, you can see that Astera Data Stack has moved the Test.xlsx file to the specified folder.
