# Project File Action

With the help of the Project File Copy Action it is possible while a project is being created in the database to create the physical file on the storage from the template.

#### Example:

If all parameters are defined in the "Add project" dialog that are necessary to create a project, this only means that an object will be created in the database. (Metadata only). If a workflow is also executed on the associated trigger "create\_project", the physical equivalent of the database object on the storage is only defined via the workflow. It is therefore only possible to open a project when this node has generated the physical file from the template. The File Copy Action can be queried in every stream in which a project object is present.
