TFS tf branch command error: no appropriate mapping exists for

I'm trying to use tf branch, but get this error:

no appropriate mapping exists for $/main_folder/folderB/folder1

below is my command:

tf branch $/main_folder/folderA/folder1/file.sql $/main_folder/folderB/folder1

Any ideas why?

The branch command copies an item or set of items, including metadata and version control history, from one location to another in the Team Foundation version control server and in the local workspace.

According to above error info, you also need to map your $/main_folder/folderB/folder1 path to your local workspace. Then try to perform the command again.

More detail tutorial about how to use this command please refer this official tutorial: Branch Command

A sample full command in cmd with using tf.exe branch command for your reference:

tf branch $/ScrumProject/TestCaseProject  $/ScrumProject/Test  /w:WPATRICK-W10
