Keep a current copy of important files without losing access control.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

For a shared folder and archive location an owner has authorized, identify files added or changed since the previous check and prepare copies with their source, version, and update time. Preserve the original permissions, scan files using approved safeguards, avoid duplicate or partial downloads, and have the folder owner verify the archive destination and retention before sensitive files are copied.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Helps teams identify updated files in a selected shared folder and prepare copies for review.

Review points proposed in this idea

A copied file may contain malware, personal information, or access restrictions that do not transfer with it. Check source and destination permissions, verify file integrity and version, scan according to policy, and set a retention period for archived copies.

Proposed setup considerations

These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.

  1. 01

    Limit monitoring to approved folders

    Document the owner, purpose, and file types in scope.

  2. 02

    Set safe download and integrity checks

    Define how partial, duplicated, or suspicious files are handled.

  3. 03

    Restrict destination access

    Keep archived copies available only to authorized roles.

  4. 04

    Define retention and removal rules

    Delete copies when the archive purpose or approved retention period ends.

Read the prelaunch status

Published templates and verified customer availability remain pending.
