Automated Transfer Profiles

Automated Profile helps you to automate the transfer process.  Perform various operations such as Synchronization, Deletion and transferring of files automatically.

You can create an Automated Profile using any of the following ways:

Each Automated Profile consists of Automated transfer rules which defines what files have to be transferred including what action should be performed on these transferred files.  For example, you can specify a rule to transfer files from your PC to FTP server and delete those files from the PC as soon as transfer is completed.  Click and know in detail about all the Action Rules

Start Automated Transfer

Once the profile is created, you can choose Start Automated transfer.  For an existing profile in the Automated Transfer list, right click on the profile from Connection Profile Panel and select Start Automated Transfer or double click on the Automated profile. Automated Transfer can also be started using the Command Line Interface.

A list of files and folders appears along with its Name, Status, Source, Destination, Compare Source and Destination and Action Rule.  The Status shows whether the file is transferred or failed.  It also displays the size of transferred file.  If any error occurs during transfer then status field shows the error.  The Compare Source and Destination displays whether the file is present on both the folder locations or not.  The action that you specify in Action Rules may include Transfer, Transfer + After transfer: Delete, Transfer + After transfer: Move, Synchronize, Transfer + Rename, Delete from destination if not present at source or Delete from source if not present at destination.  As the files are transferred, the status of the transfer is updated in the list. 

If you don't want some files to transfer then select the files and use Exclude option.  You can also stop the ongoing transfer process by clicking on Stop button.  After clicking on Stop button, you can also rearrange the priority of the files by using Move Up or Move Down buttons to transfer such that files mentioned above in the list view will be transferred first.
