Target — Folder (Local / LAN)

General

Folder path

The full path to the local or LAN Target folder. Can be typed manually or selected using the Browse button.

Connect via account

Required when the LAN folder needs credentials. Select an account from the drop-down list or press Configure to open the LAN Accounts manager.

• — (dash) — direct access without credentials.
• Account name — use a pre-configured LAN account.

Press Validate to test the connection in real time.

File Filters

Target-level file filters control which files from the overall task scope are sent to this particular Target. They work in addition to the Source-level filters.

Accept the listed files only

Only the files matching the listed masks are transferred to this Target; all others are excluded.

The masks must overlap with any Include the listed files only masks set at Source level, and must not be fully excluded by any Exclude the listed files masks at Source level — otherwise no files will reach this Target.

Reject the listed files

Files matching the listed masks are not transferred to this Target; all others proceed normally.

File Options

These options are Target-specific: they apply only to files accepted by this Target's File Filters, and only before those files are transferred. This allows different Targets to receive the same source files in different forms — for example, one Target receives files unmodified while another receives them compressed.

Modify before transfer

A transformation applied to each file before it is transferred to this Target:

• None — file is transferred as-is.
• Compress — each file is compressed individually into a ZIP archive before transfer (ZIP64 format). Configure compression type and whether to store relative paths.
• Uncompress — each file is extracted from its ZIP archive before transfer. If the file is not a ZIP archive, it is not modified.
• Compress and encrypt — file is first compressed, then encrypted (ZIP64 + password or PGP key). Requires the File Encryption extension.
• Decrypt and uncompress — reverse of the above: decrypted and then uncompressed. Requires the File Encryption extension. Files that are neither encrypted nor archived are not modified.

Set original file timestamp

When enabled, the Target file receives the same timestamp as its Source counterpart. When disabled, the Target file is timestamped at the time of transfer.

Restore directory tree

When enabled, the full subfolder structure from Source is reproduced in Target. When disabled, all Source files are placed directly in the Target root folder — no subfolders are created.

Enabled

When enabled, this Target is active and participates in the task. When disabled, the Target remains in the task configuration but is completely ignored during execution (shown as struck-out in the task scenario).
