Connection property | Description |
|---|---|
Connection Name | Enter a unique name for the connection. |
Description | Provide a relevant description for the connection. |
Use Secret Vault | Stores sensitive credentials for this connection in the secrets manager that is configured for your organization. This property appears only if secrets manager is set up for your organization. When you enable the secret vault in the connection, you can select which credentials that the Secure Agent retrieves from the secrets manager. If you don't enable this option, the credentials are stored in the repository or on a local Secure Agent, depending on how your organization is configured. Note: If you’re using this connection to apply data access policies through pushdown or proxy services, you cannot use the Secret Vault configuration option. For information about how to configure and use a secrets manager, see Secrets manager configuration. |
Runtime Environment | The name of the runtime environment where you want to run tasks. Select a Secure Agent. |
Parent Directory | Enter the parent directory path. The parent directory is the folder that contains the files to perform read and write operations. The parent directory must contain an .infaccess empty file. Create a folder within the parent directory with any name other than inprocess, success, and error. For example, you can create a read, write, or test folder. The empty file will be listed as objects when you select this connection as source or target in the task. |
Process File Content As | Select the required option from the list of available options to process the file content. The following file processing options are available:
|
Overwrite Target Files | Enables overwriting of target files. If you don't select the checkbox, files with duplicate names are not overwritten. Instead, new files are created with a numeric prefix that starts with 001 and increments with each new file, followed by two underscores and the original filename. For example, when you don't enable the overwrite target file option and a file named ABCD already exists, new files with the names 001__ABCD, 002__ABCD, and so on is created, preserving the original file without overwriting it. |
Auto Archive Source Files | Select the checkbox to enable automatic archiving of source files. This option allows you to move the files from source directory after the file is processed. |
In Process Directory | Mention the directory path to be used for file processing. By default, parent directory is considered. |
Success Directory | Mention the directory path where the files will be moved after processing. By default, parent directory is considered. Mention the success directory path only when Auto Archive Source Files option is enabled. |
Error Directory | Mention the error directory path. When they are issues/errors in file processing. Such files are moved to error directory. |
