Asset action- copy file to specific path

[Saraee]

I would like to add an Asset Action to copy a file from a set location (either on the lansweeper server or on a network share) to a specific location on the client computer. Is there any one that can point me in the right direction? I do not have much coding or programming experience and none of the other existing actions are similar.

Any help much appreciated!

Create a package with a "command"-step and enter the following line:

copy /Y [SOURCEFILE] [DESTINATIONFOLDER]

this copies the sourcefile to the destination.
May also work as an action with a few small changes.

This may be easier to accomplish with a deployment package. We cannot provide support for implementing specific actions or packages, but copying files should be fairly easy with xcopy or another similar command line step. General instructions for creating deployment packages can be found in this knowledge base article.
