Output templates
System templates
The following properties are common to all templates. They are also optional and therefore, can be skipped if not needed.
Common properties:
-
Error handling
The Enable workflow error handling option can be set to ON to use PRIMEUR system workflows to manage errors. Enabling the toggle switch, the Select error handling template drop-down list will appear with 2 templates: one to log all variables and one to notify errors. You can find details about the ehwft_logAllVariables and ehwft_logAllVariables templates in the Workflow Error Templates section. -
systemEnableLogDebugToFile
Set this toggle button to ON to activate logs
Trigger type: On Demand
The On Demand trigger does not require any mandatory variable.
The On Demand triggered workflow templates are triggered by a direct API invocation via REST. This API will accept a map of variables that will be passed to the instance as process variables. Any variable explicitly declared on the template to be requested when creating the Contract is added to the set of variables coming from the REST invocation. If a variable name is used when creating the Contract and is used in the map passed via REST as well, this second one wins over the Contract one.
1. SpExec operation
system_onDemand_exec
Goal: System template that will perform a remote spExec operation when onDemand triggered.
Variables:
-
Cluster
Steng cluster where the spExec operation is performed -
executable

Trigger type: New File
A New File trigger requires a VirtualPath.
FileSet is written by the FileBox component in the VirtualPath configured in the Contract.
The variable added to the execution is file of type FileDetail. Its attributes must be set according to the event that starts this trigger.
Common variables:
- newFileFilter
Enter the string to filter new files. For example, you may want the flow to be triggered only for files beginning with a specific filename or extension.
1. Push file in monitored Virtual Path and optionally send a confirmation
system_newFile_flagFile-triggerFile-outTransport
Goal: System Template triggered by a New file, that will remotely push a data file. If appropriate options are specified, it checks that a flag file exists before pushing and/or sending a confirmation file after pushing. Optionally, it can notify that the pull operation is successful using the notification channel options.
Operation:
- If the name of a flag file is specified, before proceeding Data One checks that a flag file exists. If the flag file is specified but not found, the workflow exits. If the flag file is not specified or if the flag file is both specified and found in the appropriate folder, Data One sends the file that triggered the workflow through Virtual Box bind to the desired destination.
- If the name of a confirmation file is specified, a dummy confirmation file is created and sent to the specified folder.
- If the Notification Channel option is specified, a notification is sent to the appropriate recipients through the selected Notification Channel.
