Overview
Use an external request to start a selective transfer to one destination device, moving only the files that meet the configured selection criteria. Request handling and matching rules are both defined in the workflow configuration.
Send Matching Files to One Device When an External Request Arrives
Use an external request to initiate selective file delivery to one destination device.
- Send files
- Matching files only
- When an external request arrives
- No follow-up actions

AI-FRIENDLY EXPLANATION
How this solution works
This page shows how to send only the files that meet your selection criteria to a single destination device when an external request arrives. 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.
Key components
- Single destination device
- File selection criteria
- External request trigger (API)
How it fits your workflow
Use this solution when an application asks for a defined subset of files rather than a whole folder, such as one document type or one customer's files. It narrows what an on-demand delivery puts on the wire.
Common use cases
- Serve only the requested document type to an application
- Deliver a single customer's files on demand
- Fetch selected attachments for a support case
- Return matching export files to a partner system
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Find answers to the most common questions about this configuration.
How do I send matching files when a request arrives?
Configure the request integration, destination, and supported file selection criteria.
Can request parameters determine which files are transferred?
This is possible only if the supported integration allows request parameters to influence file selection. Confirm the API behavior.
How do I prevent unauthorized file transfers?
Use supported authentication and authorization mechanisms, validate requests, and restrict access to permitted files.
