Need to move files from one folder to the other, renamed with timestamp.

Hi All,

I need to move files from one SFTP remote location to the other.
I have been able to do that using the mv command.

However, I'm facing a problem. The move command is unable to overwrite files if by any chance I have files which are coming with same names. Is it possible to anyway, add a timestamp in the filename, this can help me remove any duplicate file-name issues.

PS: It has to be a solution through WinSCP scripting only. I cannot use .net/powershell.

Thanks in advance!

You can use:
See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scripting#timestamp

Can someone help me to build the code to move file from one location to other and then change the extension of the file. I want to perform this action in WinSCP and Selenium Java code. Is that possible?

@Karan Sharma: As above, use the mv command:

@martin - Thanks for the response, I tried as per your suggestion but I am getting error as

Can't get attributes of file 'H:\abc\STI_706_20220203_120225.dat'.No such file or directory. Error code: 2.Error message from server: No such file

I have tried with below command(changed slash) -
Path specified in command is correct. Do you have any idea what could be the issue?

@Karan Sharma: The mv is for moving a remote file to another remote location (what this topic was originally about).
If you wanted to move a local file to a remote location, use put -delete:
