Newbie - Move old files to archive folder

[gdackerm]

I'm new to PAD and trying to setup a process to move files equal to or older than 3 days from creation date into an archive folder.  I have been experimenting with Conditionals but haven't found a solution yet.  Is there some use case scenarios or other resources I should be looking in?  Thanks in advance for your advise!

You'll need:

Get files from folder

Get current date

Subtract datetime

For each (in Files)

If CreationTime of CurrentItem is <= Subtracted date then

Move file

Thank you!  That put me on the course correction I needed.  I was quickly ejecting to running some scripts on the side.  Seeing how it is possible to step through the operation is great and I appreciate the links to the supporting materials!!

Can someone please share how can I get either file creation date or last modified date?
