Managing File System Watch Tasks

File system watch tasks run when a file of a specific file type is copied or moved into a specified folder.

The configuration of each task has a File System Event Settings section with the following fields.

• Name—You can rename the task.
• Watch Path—The folder path where IMS Integration Hub looks for files to process.
• Processing Path—The folder path to which IMS Integration Hub moves the file before processing the file.
• Processed Path—The folder path to which IMS Integration Hub moves the file if the file is successfully processed.
• Error Path—The folder path to which IMS Integration Hub moves the file if there is an error when it is processed.
• File Filter—The file types that the IMS Integration Hub Service looks for in the watch path. Examples:
• *.xls
• *.doc
• AURCategory*.csv
• Retry Attempts—The number of times IMS Integration Hub should try to complete the task. Default: 3.
• Retry Wait—The amount of time, in seconds, that IMS Integration Hub waits after a failed attempt before retrying the task. Default: 20 seconds.
• Log Successful Runs—Whether to log each successful run of the task.
• Disable Event—You can configure the task but have it disabled if required.
