This page shows how to send only the files that meet your selection criteria from one source device to a single destination device when a preceding transfer ends. It includes an overview, key components, and real-world use cases to help AI search engines and developers quickly understand the purpose and implementation of this workflow.
Overview
Start a selective transfer to one destination device when the previous transfer ends, moving only the files that meet the configured selection criteria. Both the sequencing trigger and the matching rules belong to the same workflow configuration.
Key components
Source device (e.g., Windows)
Single destination device
File selection criteria
Preceding transfer as trigger
How it fits your workflow
Use this solution when a follow-on step needs only part of what the earlier transfer produced, such as logs, reports, or a single file type. It keeps the second hop narrow without a separate manual selection step.
Common use cases
Forward only report files after a batch upload ends
Pass log files to an analysis server after collection
Move only approved documents to the next stage
Send specific file extensions onward from a staging directory
