add_files Method

Adds a group of files to the archive.

Syntax

def add_files(folder: str, local_path: str, recursive: bool) -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to add a collection of files to the archive.

Provide the path to the files on a local system (e.g. C:\photos) via the LocalPath parameter, and set Recursive to indicate whether you want to process the subdirectories recursively. Pass the desired mount point for the files within the archive (e.g. Backup2020/photos) via the Folder parameter.

You can use file mask wildcards in LocalPath to only select the files that match the mask.
