Copy one file in target directory on deploy from visual studio team services

You need to specify the copy root if you want to copy files only without folder structure. Since the project.exe is in a different path with script.ps1 file, you need to copy them in different copy task.

Following the steps below:

  1. Add a “Copy Files” step to copy “project.exe”. Settings like following:
    enter image description here
  2. Add a “Copy Files” step to copy “SomeScripts” folder. Settings like following:
    enter image description here
  3. Add a “Copy and Publish Build Artifacts” step to copy these files to “drop”. Settings like following:
    enter image description here

Now you should get the things like following in drop folder:

Project.exe
SomeScripts
    script.ps1
