Look into using the with_fileglob loop as follows:

    mode: 600
  with_fileglob:
    - /playbooks/files/fooapp/*

- name: Your copy task
  copy: src={{ item.src }} dest={{ item.dest }}
  with_items:
    - { src: 'another_file', dest: '/etc/somewhere' }
    - { src: 'dynamic', dest: '{{ var_path }}' }
  # repeat for additional files
