Filesystem actions

Filesystem actions operate on paths visible to the machine running the pipeline. They need no account credentials. A path outside the host's readable or writable areas can fail because of normal filesystem permissions.

Action	Inputs and defaults	Output
Zip (legacy)	Required folder and output paths	path, the archive path
Zip (v2)	Required folder; writes output.zip in the task cache by default	path, the archive path
Unzip file	Required file; extracts into the task working directory	output, the extraction directory
Copy file/folder	Required from, to; recursive, overwrite, and cleanup default to true	output, input, parentDirectory paths
Remove file/folder	Required from; recursive defaults to true	None
Run Command	Required command; parameters defaults to []; optional workingDirectory defaults to the process current directory; stopOnError defaults to false	stdout, stderr, exitCode, duration
Open path in explorer	Required path	message

The v2 Zip action has no visible outputPath field, although its runner accepts one internally; in the task editor, expect the cache output.zip default. Unzip's output is the working directory, not a directory chooser. Run Command executes the named program with the listed arguments; it does not evaluate a shell command string. If stopOnError is enabled, a nonzero exit causes the task to fail. Opening a path depends on the host OS desktop handler, so it may not work in headless execution.

Minimal example: run a command

command: node
parameters: ["--version"]
workingDirectory: <leave empty>
stopOnError: true

The process output and exit code are available as task outputs. The duration output is currently set to 0 by the runner. An unavailable executable or process launch error fails the task. The former Invoke File label is not the registered action name; use Run Command. List files is not currently registered.
