# FileCopyDetails

@NonExtensible
interface FileCopyDetails : FileTreeElement, ContentFilterable, Describable(source)

Provides details about a file or directory about to be copied, and allows some aspects of the destination file to be modified.

Using this interface, you can change the destination path of the file, filter the content of the file, or exclude the file from the result entirely.

Access to the source file itself after any filters have been added is not a supported operation.
