Normally, Movebot will migrate all files and folders from the source folders to the destination with the exception of a few file types that are not supported by the destination.
Movebot allows administrators to extend this functionality and define exclusion and inclusion rules. This can be done on a project level or on an individual transfer level.
Project Level Exclusion Rules
Project exclusion rules will apply to all migrations in a project. Administrators can define these rules under Content Options.
Individual Migration/Transfer Level Rules
The same options are available on an individual migration/transfer. These options extend what was already configured at a project level.
Additionally, you can change an individual transfer to only include files matching a certain set of rules. This is useful for carving up your project into chunks by file types or size.
Available Rule Types
| File Extension Matches | Only match files with the following extensions |
| Files older than | Only match files that are older than |
| Files modified before timestamp | Only match files modified before the defined unix timestamp |
