With a "Copy Files" action, I am having problems excluding a specific path. I can exclude the folder "data" by placing /data into the files to exclude box. That works fine. But I actually need to exclude "/DataSheets/Data". When I put that into the exclude box, the action doesn't ignore that folder along that path.

Does the Copy Files action support that?

Folder matching for include/exclude is done on an individual folder basis. So you can only specify one level in an exclude entry (i.e., /foldermask, not /foldermask1/mask2...). Specifying /data will exclude all folders (and their subfolders) named data. Selectively excluding only some of the folders named data is not currently supported.
