Input
For more information about mapping and transforming input data, see TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Process Design.
The input for the activity is the following.
Input Item |
Datatype |
Description |
RemoteFilename |
string |
The path and name of the file to place onto the remote server. Wildcards are not permitted in this field. |
LocalFilename |
string |
The path and name of the local file to use in the FTP Put command. This item is only available if the Use Process Data field is unchecked. |
Data |
binary or string (depends upon if the Binary Configuration field is checked) |
The contents of the file to be transferred to the FTP server, if the Use Process Data field is checked on the Configuration tab. You must map one or more process variables to this input item. The most common way to get the data for the remote file is to read a local file using the Read File activity, but you can map other data to this input item as well. |
Host |
string |
The name of the FTP server. This overrides the value specified in the FTP Connection resource. |
Port |
integer |
Port number for incoming FTP requests on the FTP server. This overrides the value specified in the FTP Connection resource. |
UserName |
string |
Username for logging into the FTP server. This overrides the value specified in the FTP Connection resource. |
Password |
string |
Password for logging into the FTP server. This overrides the value specified in the FTP Connection resource. |
Encoding |
string |
When the file to send is not binary and the Use Process Data field on the Configuration tab is checked, this specifies the character encoding of the file to send to the FTP server. If this is not specified, it is assumed that the encoding of the file is the same encoding of the machine where the FTP command is executed. If the encoding of the local machine and the FTP server are different, specify the encoding used by the FTP server in this element and the activity converts the file into the specified encoding. |
