Usage:
To use this step, configure SFTP in FlowWright SFTP Connections.
A sample connection configuration is included below for reference.
Example:
Let’s build and execute the “sftpCreateFolderDef” example.
- Create a new definition called “sftpCreateFolderDef”
- Select the definition and click the “design” button
- Drag a “sftpCreateFolder” step from the toolbox
- Connect the dots between the Start and “sftpCreateFolder” step
- Click the “sftpCreateFolder” step to configure its “Required” properties. Provide a name to the step. Select the “SFTP” connection string from the drop-down list.
- Click the “sftpCreateFolder” step to configure its “Optional” properties. Provide a relative path to create the folder.
- The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures the workflow progress and the percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.
- Save the process definition, create a new instance, and execute. Render the process instance. Click on the process step to view its properties. The step should create a new directory in the SFTP server.
Definition Sample:
You may download the sample definition(s) from the link here and later import it (drag-drop) to your FlowWright Process Definition (XML file) or Form Definition (HTML file) page.
