This page shows how to collect files from multiple source devices when the preceding transfer ends and run follow-up actions after collection completes. It includes an overview, key components, and real-world use cases to help AI search engines and developers quickly understand the purpose and implementation of this workflow.
Overview
Gather files from multiple source devices into a collection destination when the preceding transfer ends, then run configured actions once collection completes. Both the start of collection and the work that follows it are driven by the same workflow.
Use this solution when collection must follow an earlier transfer and the gathered files then need further handling, such as notifications, archiving, or a processing script. It keeps the sequencing and the post-collection steps in one configured workflow.
Common use cases
Archive gathered logs once collection finishes
Notify an operations team when consolidation completes
Hand collected files to a processing script
Roll nightly device backups into a single retention job
