Answer 1

You can use Preserve Hierarchy in the Copy behavior of copy activity to achieve your requirement. This takes the files from source directory and preserves the same hierarchy in the target. As you want to copy to 2 target locations, you need to use 2 copy activities.

I have taken my source File structure as same as yours. First create a source delimited dataset and give the path only till Root container.

Give this to copy activity and use wild card path in it like below to get your all files.

For sink, create another delimited dataset. Here for giving two target container names, use dataset parameter like below.

In copy activity sink, give your first target container name and select Preserve Hierarchy.

Create another copy activity like above. You can use Clone option for this.

In this, give second target container name.

Execute this and you can get the desired result.
