Copy one file in target directory on deploy from visual studio team services

Question

I\'m using VSTS as a build server, and while building I want to copy the bin folder contents to the root of the target, and also custom files from another folder to this tar

Answer 1

You need to specify the copy root if you want to copy files only without folder structure. Since the project.exe is in a different path with script.ps1 file, you need to copy them in different copy task.

Following the steps below:

1. Add a "Copy Files" step to copy "project.exe". Settings like following:
2. Add a "Copy Files" step to copy "SomeScripts" folder. Settings like following:
3. Add a "Copy and Publish Build Artifacts" step to copy these files to "drop". Settings like following:

Now you should get the things like following in drop folder:

Project.exe
SomeScripts
    script.ps1
