Go to https://xmpro.com if... when we are they to do here is look at
how to set up and configure the fireless
in the agent the purpose of this agent
is to monitor directory for files for
example I have a directory year that I
want to monitor which is a folder called
sensor readings that is located on my
desktop I also have an archive folder in
this folder which I will explain in a
second now let's go to test room
designer to set up this agent go to the
toolbox and search for file you will
find it under listeners click on the
agent and drag it to the canvas note
that a default name has been given to
this agent to rename this agent click on
the white space and start typing click
somewhere else on the canvas and click
Save to configure this agent
double-click on it first make sure you
using the correct collection if you'd
like to change this just elect another
collection from the drop-down next you
need to set your polling interval if I
leave this as 10 it will check the
directory for files or changes every 10
seconds then you'll see there's a target
directory path field on this form which
you need to fall in this is the path to
the directory you want to monitor if
you'd like to include such direct trees
in this directory which needs to be
monitored select the check box then you
need to specify your search pattern
which is helpful if you want to narrow
down the type of files you want to
monitor for example if I just want to
monitor CSV files I'm going to change
this to start at CSV lastly you need to
specify your archive directory path
which is the directory to the archive
folder that I mentioned before where
files will be moved once detected
click apply and click Save to run your
stream click on publish to view the live
data click on live view select your file
agent and click Save
as you can see the father I've pasted in
here has been moved to the archive
territory in a live view expand the page
by clicking on maximize and you can see
the data record that has come through
