Export

Code Activity Grooper.Activities

Exports document content files and/or data to an external system.

Remarks

The Export activity is used to transfer document content, files, and/or extracted data from Grooper to an external system or location. This activity selects an Export Behavior based on the Content Type assigned to each document being exported. Export behaviors can be defined locally on the Export activity or as shared resources on Content Types (see the 'Behaviors' property of a Content Type).

How It Works

  • When executed, the activity determines the Content Type of each document and selects the appropriate Export Behavior.
  • If a matching local behavior is found, it is used; otherwise, shared behaviors defined on the Content Type are considered, depending on the 'Shared Behavior Mode' property.
  • Each Export Behavior defines the export configuration for a specific Content Type, including file output, data formatting, and destination.
  • If no export behavior is found for a document, the 'Required' property determines whether an error is raised or the document is skipped.

Configuration Guidance

  • Define an Export Behavior for each Content Type you wish to export, either locally or as a shared behavior.
  • Use the 'Export Behaviors' property to configure local behaviors for the activity.
  • Use the 'Shared Behavior Mode' property to control how local and shared behaviors are combined or prioritized.
  • Set 'Required' to true to enforce that every document must have an export behavior, or false to allow documents to be skipped if not configured.

> Tip: In simple scenarios, a single export behavior may be sufficient. For more complex solutions, define additional behaviors for each > document type or use shared behaviors for reuse and consistency.

For more information, see the documentation for Export Behavior, Content Type, and Code Activity.
