Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a text area (Task comments) that lets
you write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with
the OK button, and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
SFTP Input
The SFTP Input task retrieves files from a secure FTP site through an encrypted connection.
Masks are typically used to select multiple files to be retrieved from the server.
Input
The SFTP Input connects to the specified FTP server and path, and retrieves a list of all files
corresponding to the specified mask. These files may be of any format, even formats that are
not readable by PlanetPress Workflow. The files are not deleted from the server when they are
downloaded. They are added to a list of processed files for this server. These lists are located
under C:\ProgramData\Objectif Lune\.
Processing
Each file capture by the input is sent down through the process, one at a time. When the file is
finished, the process goes back to the input which feeds another file down, as long as there are
files in the queue. Once all the files are gone, the task polls the FTP folder again to see if new
files are present and, if so, the process continues with these files. Otherwise, the process ends.
