Overview
You can define actions and trigger them to enable ActiveTransfer Server to perform a configured task or set of tasks. There are three types of ActiveTransfer actions:
Important:
The references to Events and Actions in ActiveTransfer 10.2 and earlier versions are now changed to Actions and Tasks respectively in the new ActiveTransfer user interface. However, the ActiveTransfer assets in My webMethods Server user interface and APIs still follow the old naming convention.
Post-Processing actions enable
ActiveTransfer Server to perform a specific task or set of tasks when a user uploads, downloads, or deletes a file.
Any configuration changes in the post-processing action now get applied to all the active user sessions as well.
This behavior appears for webMethods ActiveTransfer version 10.7 and later.
Scheduled actions enable
ActiveTransfer Server to perform a set of tasks at a specified date and time.
Monitor Folder actions enable
ActiveTransfer Server to monitor a directory in local or shared file system. It allows you to perform a specific task or set of tasks when a file or folder is created or deleted in the monitoring directory.
