# Copy Object

> **Note:** Ensure you have installed the [required package](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/sdk/javascript/v1/cloudscale/stratus/overview/#prerequisites) to use this SDK method.

#### Key Terns

<table border="1" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Name</th>
      <th>Definition</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>`key`</td>
      <td>The object that is being copied.</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>`destination`</td>
      <td>Will contain the new [path](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/stratus/objects/introduction/#path) name of the object.</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

You can use the `copyObject()` SDK method, to create a copy of the required object in same or different paths of the bucket.

The `bucket` reference used in the following code snippet is the [component instance](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/sdk/javascript/v1/cloudscale/stratus/create-bucket-instance/).

> **Notes:**

* You need to provide the complete object name, along with the [path](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/stratus/objects/introduction/#path) for both `key` and `destination` values.

* For example, if you have file named "`kitten.png`" in the path `pictures/puppy`, and you need to copy the file to `pictures/kitten` path, then: 
    - `source_object` value will be '`pictures/puppy/kitten.png`'
    - `dest_object` value will be `'pictures/kitten/kitten.png'`

```javascript
const res = await bucket.copyObject('sam/out/sample.txt', 'out/sam/sample.txt');
console.log(res);
```

#### Example of Expected Response

```json
{
  "copy_to": "sam/out/sample.txt",
  "key": "out/sam/sample.txt",
  "message": "Object copied successfully."
}
```
