Map files from source modules to target modules

Modules can process files require two pieces of information:

File name
File content (data)

If any previous modules output a file, you can select the source module, and the name and data of the file output by that module are mapped to the target module.

You can also enter this name and data manually, or map it from previous modules. This may be convenient when, for exameple, renaming a file.

NOTE

If you need to process a file from a URL, we recommend using the HTTP > Get a File module to download the file from the URL, and then mapping the file from the HTTP > Get a File module to the desired module鈥檚 field in your scenario.

To map a file:

Click the Scenarios tab in the left panel.
Select the scenario where you want to map a file.
Click anywhere on the scenario to enter the Scenario editor.
In the target module, which is the target you are mapping to, locate the Source file area.
To map a file output by a previous module, select the module that output the file.
To map the name and data manually, select Map, then enter or map the file鈥檚 name and data.
Continue configuring the module, or click OK.
