Hi,

I am trying to use 'Copy to SharePoint' action to copy documents to another farm. I get error "Failed to copy item. Unable to connect to the remote server".

Following is the value used in 'Destination' field with 'Enter a URL' selected:

https://server/sites/projects/Shared Documents

where Shared Documents is the destination library

I am using my credentials for testing the functionality and I have the required permission in the destination farm.

I would like to avoid using web services at this point as I wish to bring some meta data along with the document and would like to test the straight forward functionality of the 'Copy to SharePoint' action.

Please advice.

Thank you,

M

You must use Lists.asmx across a farm, but that only support list items. Copy To SharePoint does not work across a farm (this is because it uses the SharePoint Object Model API which is farm specific).

Hi Fernando,

Thank you for taking your time to respond.

I had the same understanding as you have recommended, then I read the 'Override credential' section in 'Copy to SharePoint'. It states that credential must be provided when copying the file to another farm.
