I'm having some difficulty finding a good way to copy multiple files between two different folders. I would like to copy the contents of the AOI, BAOI and From client folders to their matching folders in a different location. See photos below:

 

Source folders:

Capture28Destination folders:Capture29Ideally I would like to get this done using two user parameters one for the source parent folder (D:\\aerial_mbu\\Aerial_2020\\Quotes\\Q19999_FME_Test folder) and one for the destination parent folder (D:\\aerial_mbu\\Aerial_2020\\Jobs\\19999_FME_Test folder)

But I'm having troubles using the file copy transformer. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

You need to create the specific attributes (filecopy_source_dataset, filecopy_dest_dataset, filecopy_dest_filename) to get it to work. Also see
