Examples
Use these examples as models for testing and configuring PTAs.
Example 1: Send a directory listing to the log file
This example sends a directory listing to the log file. The default file filter triggers the action after every upload. The program for these PTAs must be specified using the full path; in this example it is the path to the Windows cmd command. The $FILE_PATH$ token is used to get the listing of the upload directory. Because the destination directory might include spaces, this token is enclosed in double quotation marks.
File filter: .*
Program: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
Arguments: /c dir "$FILE_PATH$"
Note: Use the /c argument when you you use the Windows cmd command. This switch specifies that cmd should exit after the specified command is carried out.
Example 2: Copy uploaded PDF documents to specified directory
This example copies uploaded PDF files to an existing destination directory. The file filter uses a regular expression to specify all files with a .pdf file extension.
File filter: .*\.pdf
Program: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
Arguments: /c copy "$FULL_PATH$" c:\fxgout
