Is it possible to place the Exported files from ServiceNow to Mid server in different folder

[mohanambalnanja]

Hi ,

There is a requirement to place the exported files from ServiceNow to place in the different folder (import$\hosting\Export\) or (D:\Import\VMware\Export\) rather than the mid server installation path (D:\ServiceNow\Agent\ServiceNow MID Server Integration Test\agent\export\DMI_Export)

Need your suggestion on this whether it can be done or not . If yes, is it best practice to do that.

Because other exports to the mid server will be affected which is pointing to the installation path. 

Thanks

Hi @mohanambalnanja ,

2 ways you can do this :

1. While servicenow places the file on mid server path , define the new path were the file needs to be placed (make sure to have proper access to the path for the user to read/write.).

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";

2. You can create a simple powershell script which copies the file from one path to the other.

Thank you all for your update. @Sohail Khilji  Can you please confirm where should I write this script ?
