Move Files from a SharePoint Library into a Folder

Question

I have a problem. I want to move files from a SharePoint library into a folder using PowerShell. To be more specific I need to move all the files in the library for whose a SharePoint field value equals a set value (Field "Vertrauensstufe"=="vertraulich") to a folder called "geheim".

How can I do that?

Answer 1

I found these script, but it don't need the folder query... but there are some things in (e.g. the Caml-Query and the move function) that i need, but i dont know how i can customize These script for my idea.

Answer 2

it is not required to programm this script in PowerShell you can easily do this in C# and only load DLL into SharePoint: see it here.

If you are realy required to do this in PowerShell you can always load DLL of FrameWork into your powerShell consol and do API calls to do what you need.

Here is the answer I left for similar question. And another one: Using PowerShell how do I change the column ordering for a SharePoint List

Hope it helps,

You can use Content and Structure to move files to a different place within a site collection. Please see a video of usage. But SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure site collection feature should be activated. You will need to select files manually and apply move action.
