Send Matching Files to Many Devices When the Previous Transfer Ends

Overview

When a preceding transfer ends, transfer the files that meet configured matching criteria to multiple destination devices. The trigger governs when the run starts and the selection rules govern which of the available files it carries.

Key components

• Preceding transfer (completion trigger)
• Source device (e.g., Windows)
• Multiple destination devices
• File selection criteria (e.g., name pattern or extension)

How it fits your workflow

Use this solution for a staged pipeline where only part of what arrived in the first step should move on, such as files of a certain type or the output produced by the earlier step. The filter is what keeps intermediate and unrelated files out of the second stage.

Common use cases

• Forward only processed output files from a staging host to regional servers
• Pass matching archives from an upload stage to multiple downstream systems
• Fan out approved document types after an initial collection run
• Distribute only the newly produced files of a batch job
