Mass moving Reports from one folder to another using the Eclipse Force.com IDE

In the Eclipse IDE


  • Create a new project
  • Include ‘reports’ or more specifically the report folders you are concerned with
  • Let Eclipse refresh the project with the reports metadata
  • In Eclipse, navigate to the reports folder you just download and then select the Report Folder you want the reports you want to move from, right click and select Properties

  • Take Note of the Location. This is the path where the metadata files are located
  • Open a windows explorer window and navigate to that path

  • Highlight all the Reports you want to move and right click Cut
  • Still in window explorer navigate back to the list of report folders and expand the one you want to move the reports to and right click and Paste
  • Now back in the IDE highlight the folder titled Reports and right click and Refresh and then right click again and Force.com - Save to Server

  • BOOM! Now you have moved your reports.
