Actions

When defining the file event listener, you can define a set of actions to be executed on files.

Actions can be selected in the Action drop-down menu and allow you to execute these options: run a script, decrypt and encrypt files using PGP, zip files.

Execute script

This action runs a pre-defined script, which can be either saved in Data Mover Smart Settings → Scripts or stored in a specific path, which must be entered in the Script path field.

Script variables can be added, clicking the New icon and entering the variable in the edit box, either manually or entering ${ and using the macros.
