Task properties
General Tab
l
Folder: Enter the path of the folder to which the files are to be saved.
l
File name: Enter the name of the output files generated by this task. To prevent each new
file from overwriting the previous one, you should use variable names. You can use any
combination of text, variables and data selections; see "Variable task properties" on
page301.
l
Concatenate files: If this option is selected, when PlanetPress Workflow tries to save a
file under a given name, if a file under that same name already exists, instead of
overwriting it, PlanetPress Workflow will append the content of the new file to that of the
existing file. This appending process will go on until the file is removed from the folder.
l
Separator string: This option is used to add a separator string between the content of
each file when the Concatenate files option is selected.
Miscellaneous Tab
The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Set Job Infos and Variables
Add Set Job Infos and Variables action tasks to set Job Info elements as well as custom
variables (see "About variables" on page696). You can set multiple variables and Job Info
values in a single task. Be aware that lines are processed from top to bottom.
Input
Any data file in any format.
Processing
This task assigns the defined values to local or global variables or Job Info variables. It does
not modify the data file nor the Metadata.
