macOS Applescript Hot folder

[mgs-script]

Hi,
I'll set up an "Incoming Hot Folder" that get TIFF files copied to it.

After the files have been processed by Photoshop, I'd like the files in the "Incoming Hot Folder" to be deleted. The processed files will be saved in "Outgoing Hot Folder".

I'll use an Apple Script and connect it to "Folder Actions" in the OS.

My question:
How do I solve the delete stage in this process? When files are processed, I want them to go away!

Thanks!!!

Well, you could just move them instead of deleting.

I think you're going to need to show the code you have so far before anyone can give you much more specific help.

...for example, the following code demonstrates moving a files one by one from one folder to another:

set theIncomingFilesFolder to choose folder with prompt "Please choose the INCOMING files folder"
set theCompletedFilesFolder to choose folder with prompt "Please choose the COMPLETED files folder"

tell application "Finder"
	
	set theFileList to every file of theIncomingFilesFolder
	
	
	repeat with theFile in theFileList
	--do something with theFile here
		move theFile to theCompletedFilesFolder
	end repeat
	
end tell
