OverviewCopy link to clipboard
The Move Document smart service allows you to select a document and move it to a new folder or a new Knowledge Center. Only a System Administrator, member of the Document Administrators group, a Knowledge Center Administrator, or the person who uploaded the document can move it. A document can only be moved in to an existing folder or Knowledge Center.
Caution: This node can only be executed with the appropriate user rights. Attempting to complete this task without sufficient rights generates an error message for the Process Administrator and pauses the process.
