Solved Need logic help in file move action

Hi,

I need to send error alert if no file move in file move action.

How can I achieve it?

Hi,

When being executed, the File Move action publishes a variable called 'FILE_NB', which indicates the number of files treated.
You can use the value of this variable to design the flow after your action, to separate the execution into two branch, for instance:



You can replace the Empty actions here by any action.
You could send a mail, generate an error through scripting, ...

This article demonstrates how to generate an error:

Is this what you wanted to achieve ?

Hi,

Thanks for solution. It is working fine

Can we implemented similar logic on get file with ftp action?

Like if no file found on ftp then error mail.

Hi,

The Get Files with FTP action is also publishing the number of files treated in a 'FILE_NB' session variable.
You can so implement a similar logic on this action without any problem.

More generally, all the variables available in the Process can be used in a link condition.
If needed, you can see all the variables published by an action after its execution in the 'Variable' View in the Designer.

Hi,

Initially I thought about it but ,I did not find FILE_NB variable in session variable / variable view.

but If I use similar logic on FTP get action then It is working fine.

Thanks It is really helpful for me.

I have one more query regarding file records (Should I create a new thread for it?).
I want to check that file contain records or not, before move action perform.
