Programmable Block | Moving Inventory Items (Assembler -> Storage)

Hello fellow Engineers!

I have just started looking into the programming block and so far cannot keep up with the ideas rushing through my head! I have been waiting for this block for so long. I have been wanting to script up something to push all built items from an assembler into a specific storage container or just simple "tidying up" storage inventories. However, it appears to be this is not yet possible for the programmable block? I have been searching the forums, In-Game API and Google for an answer, but with the programming block being so new, I have a feeling this is not yet possible. Am I correct on this assumption? If so, is this a planned feature and, if not, could I be lead in the right direction?

Thanks,
An_Astronaut

P.S. I consider myself proficient in C#.

 

It is quite possible.

Try this:

 

Here is my assembler clearing scrcipt, it keeps them from filling up with gravel or iron etc.
