OpenFT Poller

polls the OpenFT system and gets the file transfer status for the asynchronous session id and request ID.

Overview

This Snap polls the OpenFT system and gets the file transfer status for the asynchronous session id and request ID. It writes the file transfer status to the output view.

Error

Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter when running the pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab. The available options are:

  • Stop Pipeline Execution Stops the current pipeline execution when the Snap encounters an error.
  • Discard Error Data and Continue Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records.
  • Route Error Data to Error View Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.

Learn more about Error handling in Pipelines.

Note:
  • Suggestion icon (): Indicates a list that is dynamically populated based on the configuration.
  • Expression icon (): Indicates whether the value is an expression (if enabled) or a static value (if disabled). Learn more about Using Expressions in SnapLogic.
  • Add icon (): Indicates that you can add fields in the field set.
  • Remove icon (): Indicates that you can remove fields from the field set.
Field / Field set Type Description
Label String Required. Specify a unique name for the Snap. Modify this to be more appropriate, especially if there are more than one of the same Snap in the pipeline.
Session ID String/Expression Required. Specify thestring to identify the asynchronous file transfer session ID.

Default value: N/A

Example: tgs-212
Request ID String/Expression Specify the string to identify the asynchronous file transfer request ID.

Default value: N/A

Example: 315-05-43
Polling Interval (seconds) Integer/Expression Enter the time interval in seconds at which you want the Snap to fetch the status of the file transfer.

Default value: 5

Example: 10

Minimum value: 1
Number of time polling action Integer/Expression Specify the number of iterations the Snap should poll the status.

Default value: 1

Example: 5

Minimum value: 1
Snap execution Dropdown list Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes.
Available options are:
  • Validate & Execute. Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during pipeline runtime.
  • Execute only. Performs full execution of the Snap during pipeline execution without generating preview data.
  • Disabled. Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.
