Users who want to rename the file or folder that is being moved, specify the Name input field with the file extension if moving a file. Leave the Name input field empty if you are not renaming the file or folder.
Items cannot be moved between drives, users or groups using this request. For example, if the source file or folder in Drive A is moved to a destination folder in Drive B, then the Source file or folder is added to the root directory of Drive A, not the intended folder in Drive B.
By default, users cannot move a file or folder from a drive, users or group that belongs to another user.
