Rules for Using File Name Tokens

When creating a file name that uses file name tokens, you must follow the following rules:
  • Substitution parameters are enclosed in $(token_name): a dollar sign, followed by an open parenthesis, followed by the token name, followed by a close parenthesis.
  • Each $(token_name) can only contain one token name.
  • Any text in the local file name that is not a substitution parameter is embedded, as is, into the generated name.
  • Tokens might be used anywhere within the local file name.
  • Space permitting, any number of substitution parameters can be embedded within the file name.
  • If the resolved file name length is greater than the maximum file name length (255 characters) supported by the platform server, the resolved file name is truncated.
  • Tokens are case sensitive and will affect the output of the file name; therefore, you must use them exactly as they are documented in File Name Tokens List.
  • If a formatted name contains an invalid substitution code, the transfer will fail with an error stating that a substitution code is invalid.
