File Type
Trading Networks Action
Binary file
Creates a zip file containing the binary export file. When extracted, you can use the contents of this zip file to import using My webMethods or a custom service. You can import using My webMethods, custom service, or the tnimport utility. Notes about binary files:
*Binary output is much smaller than XML output, and can be imported more quickly than XML output.
*You can export certificates to a binary file.
*Binary files cannot be read by humans.
*If you have special characters in asset names, you might see corrupted file errors when the asset is imported. You can prevent these errors by using a binary file.
XML file
Trading Networks creates a zip file containing an XML export file. When extracted, you can use the contents of this zip file to import using My webMethods or a custom service, or the tnimport utility. Notes about SML files:
*XML output is a little slower to import than binary output.
*You cannot export certificates to an XML file.
*You can read XML files and edit assets if necessary before import (for example, the name of a property).
