# What is "Send here" in Data Parking?

Send here drops the items you've selected straight into whichever folder the other pane is showing — no pairing and no matching names needed. There's one Send here button for each direction.

A confirmation offers four choices: **Copy** or **Move**, each either as an exact mirror (which removes files the destination has but the source doesn't) or as a merge (which keeps them). Your last choice is remembered, and you're warned when a choice would delete files or when you're moving to the cloud.

Send here is greyed out when both panes have something selected, because the direction would be ambiguous — clear one side first.
