# DirTreeMoveToFolder

## Description

Move the current selection to a folder.

It is possible to select the folder either from a "leaf-less/folders-only" version of the current widget contents, or via text input.

First, invoke the action on the current selection:

![Invoking the action](https://1926493584-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FD7fgl4EL0WWJ18ZQcIxE%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-a17e6796b00a5f5f8a8ba49ecb95612cd938493b%2FDirTreeMoveToFolder-action.png?alt=media)

Then, either enter the "path" to the folder where you want to move the items, or pick it from the "folders-only" tree:

![Select/enter path](https://1926493584-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FD7fgl4EL0WWJ18ZQcIxE%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-06b252253abb63a0c7a85662bf7d98ef4b6b19db%2FDirTreeMoveToFolder-dialog.png?alt=media)

Upon completion, the items will have been moved to the specified location:

![Result](https://1926493584-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FD7fgl4EL0WWJ18ZQcIxE%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b24352df3b90048911d33070e564e971f0184b1c%2FDirTreeMoveToFolder-result.png?alt=media)

### Notes

When using the text line input,

1. The widget offers history, and will conveniently offer the most-recently-used folder upon invocation
2. Entering the path to an unexisting folder, will offer to create it.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.hex-rays.com/ida-actions/dirtreemovetofolder.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
