export set - how to put target path outside Mid server path

fbelghait · ‎07-19-2022

Hi,

I have a requirement to put the export file generated by the export set outside the mid server. I am not allowed to use the symlink solution. since it seems that server now do not allow to specify target path outside the Mid Server, I am thinking using a post script to move the file.

can anyone share a script code that moves the files from the mid server target path to a mapped drive

Thanks

Hi,

you can use post export script and use mid server script include and move the file and then delete it

I found the answer. here is an example of code that can be used to put a command in the queue

var ecc = new GlideRecord("ecc_queue");

ecc.initialize();

ecc.agent = "mid.server.MyMidServer2";

ecc.topic = "Command";

ecc.name = "powershell move-item -Path C:\\MidServer\\Mid2\\agent\\export\\*.csv -Destination C:\\Temp";

ecc.queue = "output";

ecc.state = "ready";

Hi

you could use the rsync command: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-use-rsync-for-local-and-remote-data-transfer-and-synchronization/

Kind regards

Hi,

Unfortunatly canniot yuse rsync , the mid server is on wondows , in addition to that, the file should be removed from the source destination once copied into the destination directory
