ZIP Files Action

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The ZIP Files action creates a step to create, add, or update files in a ZIP or GZ (gzip) file.

 

When built, the action finds all matching files and folders (recursively searching for matches if specified), copies any matching files (creating destination folders as necessary), deletes the source files after successfully copying if moving, and also deletes any files/folders in the destination that do not exist in the source folder if purging.

 

When the step completes, the following temporary macros are created or updated:

ZIP_PROCESS_COUNT = The number of files added or updated in the compressed file

Notes:
