| img.IsLandscape | If the image is landscape | bool | false |
| img.DateTaken | If available, full DateTime the image was taken | DateTime | 2020-04-23 12:00:23 |
| img.DateTaken.Year | If available, year an image was taken | number | 2020 |

Move Files Based On Dates
If you wish to move a file to a folder based on the data it was taken.
Say, your base folder is D:\Pictures\Family Photos
You can use the Move File or Copy File flow element with the following parameters
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Destination Folder | D:\Pictures\Family Photos\{img.DateTaken.Year}\{img.DateTaken.Month} |
This will move or copy the files to folders when a photo was taken.
If you may wish to first test if the DateTaken is avilable first, in that case you can use a Function before the Move File or Copy File with the following code
return Variables.img?.DateTaken ? 1 : -1;
This will fail the flow if the DateTaken does not exist. If you wish to instead call a second output instead, you can increase the Function outputs to 2 and then use this code instead
return Variables.img?.DateTaken ? 1 : 2;
