Monitoring a directory and using variable substitution
You can monitor a directory using the fteCreateMonitor command. The value of a substitution variable can be substituted in the task XML definition and used to define the transfer behavior.
About this task
After a .zip file is written to the directory, the application that writes the file to the directory writes a trigger file to the same directory. The name of the trigger file is the same as the name of the .zip file, but has a different file extension. For example, after the file file1.zip is written to the directory, the file file1.go is written to the directory. The resource monitor monitors the directory for files that match the pattern *.go then uses variable substitution to request a transfer of the associated .zip file.
