Advanced
The Advanced tab contains the following fields:

Global Var? |
Description |
Write to File |
No |
Checking this field specifies to write incoming requests that exceed the specified threshold size to a file instead of storing the request in memory. This allows you to accept large incoming requests without consuming a great deal of memory. When this field is checked, the Directory and Threshold Size fields appear. Note: This option is not intended to be used with the Parse Post Method Data option on the Configuration tab. When Write to File is specified, the PostData output element becomes a choice element containing either the output FileName or the PostData depending upon whether the data exceeds the size specified in the Threshold Size field. It is recommended to use either the Write to File option or the Parse Post Method data option, but not both at the same time.
Leaving this field unchecked specifies to keep incoming requests in memory. Note: Once written, the files created by using this option are not deleted automatically. You must manage the storage used by these files and delete them when they are no longer used.

Directory |
Yes |
Create Non-Existing Directories |
Threshold Size (bytes) |
Yes |
The maximum size (in bytes) of an incoming request that can be kept in memory. Requests larger than the specified size are written to a file in the specified directory. The file’s name is output so that subsequent activities in the process definition can access the file and read its contents. Specifying zero (0) in this field causes all incoming requests to be saved to a file. |
