Description:\nThis template facilitates the transfer of a folder, along with all its files and subfolders, within a Nextcloud instance. The Nextcloud user must have access to both the source and destination folders. While Nextcloud allows folder movement, complications may arise when dealing with external storage that has rate limits. This workflow ensures the individual transfer of each file to avoid exceeding rate limits, particularly useful for setups involving external storage with rate limitations.\n\n## How it works:\n\n- Identify all files and subfolders within the specified source folder.\n- Recursive search within subfolders for additional files.\n- Replicate the folder structure in the target folder.\n- Individually move each identified file to the corresponding location in the target folder.\n\n## Set up steps:\n\n- Set Nextcloud credentials for all Nextcloud nodes involved in the process.\n-Edit the trigger settings. Detailed instructions can be found within the respective trigger configuration.\n- Initiate the workflow to commence the folder transfer process.\n\n\n## Help\nIf you need assistance with applying this template, feel free to reach out to me. You can find additional information about me and my services here. => https://nicokowalczyk.de/links\n\nI have also produced a video where I explain the workflow and provide an example. You can find this video over here. https://youtu.be/K1kmG_Q_jRk\n\nCheers.\nNico Kowalczyk"}, "typeVersion": 1}], "connections": {"Webhook": {"main": [[{"node": "Whether the request is valid", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Set paths": {"main": [[{"node": "Set folder-paths for from and to", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Loop Over all files": {"main": [[{"node": "Delete from-folder", "type": "main", "index": 0}], [{"node": "Move file to destination", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Whether type is file": {"main": [[{"node": "Consolidate all files and folders found", "type": "main", "index": 0}], [{"node": "Set new path for subfolder", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Set new path for file": {"main": [[{"node": "Loop Over all files", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Execute Workflow Trigger": {"main": [[{"node": "Whether the request is valid1", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Move file to destination": {"main": [[{"node": "Loop Over all files", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Set new path for subfolder": {"main": [[{"node": "Create subfolder in to-folder", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Consolidate all found files": {"main": [[{"node": "Set new path for file", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Loop over files and folders": {"main": [null, [{"node": "Whether type is file", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Whether the request is valid": {"main": [[{"node": "Set folder-paths for from and to", "type": "main", "index": 0}], [{"node": "Stop and Error: request not valid", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Create subfolder in to-folder": {"main": [[{"node": "Get all folders/files in found subfolder", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Create to folder if necessary": {"main": [[{"node": "Get all folders/files in from-folder", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Whether the request is valid1": {"main": [[{"node": "Set folder-paths for from and to", "type": "main", "index": 0}], [{"node": "Stop and Error: request not valid1", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Set folder-paths for from and to": {"main": [[{"node": "Create to folder if necessary", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "When clicking \"Execute Workflow\"": {"main": [[{"node": "Set paths", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Get all folders/files in from-folder": {"main": [[{"node": "Loop over files and folders", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Consolidate all files and folders found": {"main": [[{"node": "Whether there is are more files or subfolders found", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Get all folders/files in found subfolder": {"main": [[{"node": "Consolidate all files and folders found", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}, "Whether there is are more files or subfolders found": {"main": [[{"node": "Consolidate all found files", "type": "main", "index": 0}], [{"node": "Loop over files and folders", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}}}
