move command how does it work?

What does this do? Can it move a .rmd file between projects?

Hi,

Welcome to the RStudio community!
You question is rather vague, please provide us with some more information, preferably by creating a reprex. A reprex consists of the minimal code and data needed to recreate the issue/question you're having. You can find instructions how to build and share one here:

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…

Kind regards,

Hi,

It's a command that moves files from one folder to another. Simply check the boxes next to the filenames of the files you like to move, then click Move... and select the folder where you want to move them to.

The folder I want to move it to is another rstudio.cloud project. What I currently have to do is export it, then open the other project and upload it. Seems like that is what the idea behind this was, but it does't work or most likely I can figure out how to make it work.

Hi,

I'm not very familiar with RStudio cloud yet, but I think it might not be possible at the moment to move files between projects. This post seems to suggest that (although it refers to whole projects).

how to make copies of files from a shared cloud project (like an assignment)

I'm using RStudio Cloud for a course, and am wondering how I could copy all or part of a student's project: I'd like to be able to familiarize myself with my students' chosen datasets and code, but I don't want to make changes to their copies of the assignment projects.

Maybe someone else here knows a workaround...

The file panel is like any other file explorer, and that option allows you to move files between folders you have access to, but Rstudio Cloud projects run on isolated environments so you can't have access to other project's folders.

I use it for a class too. If you give your assignments is a "shared workspace" in which your students are collaborators and you are the Admin you can make copies of anything in that space. Watch the webinar by Mine Cetinkaya-Rundel in the rstudio webinar series a few weeks ago.
