Introduction

The JS7 - File Transfer capabilities can be used to transfer files by a number of protocols such as FTP, FTPS, SFTP, WebDAV, HTTP/HTTPS, etc. The JS7 Agent includes the YADE client that is available from the Agent's home directory. 

Workflow

The workflow jdCreateDemoYadeFiles includes a shell job that creates files for transfer with the workflow jdTransferFiles. The transfer of files is automatically triggered by JS7 - File Watching:

  • Workflow jdCreateDemoYadeFiles creates the files,
  • File Watching automatically picks up the files and
  • starts the jdTransferFiles workflow by adding one order per file created. This workflow transfers files to an SFTP server.

To execute the workflow from the folder 09_FileTransfer follow the below steps:

  1. Click the folder 09_FileTransfer and expand the jdCreateDemoYadeFiles workflow.

Click the Modify Variable link and from the drop-down menu and select the name of the variable that you want to modify. In the below screenshot the variable num_of_files is selected with the default value 1. You can modify this value to create 1 to 5 files in the source directory. The variable is declared with the workflow definition, you can modify its value and click the Submit button to add the order to the workflow.
