Figure 1 - The Target tab with Triple-S XML selected
When Target Type is set to Triple-S Data File - or Forsta Extended Triple-S XML, the properties and options available on the tab are as follows:
- Survey Data Template - select the template to be used from the Template List.
- Files to include - select which files are to be included in the export; Schema and data, Schema only, or Data only.
- Data File Encoding- select ANSI or Unicode as appropriate.
- Schema File Encoding - select ANSI, Unicode or UTF-8 (default) as appropriate.
- Encrypt File - data transfer encryption functionality makes it possible to perform secure data exports from Forsta Plus. The encrypted files can then be either ordered by email or sent to the FTP server for downloading. The users will have to decrypt the files using their private PGP encryption keys.
- Email Address - if the file is to be sent via email, this is the recipient's email address.
- File Transfer - export files can either be sent by email or placed on an FTP server. FTP is the recommended option for large volumes of data, since emails with large attachments may be blocked. FTP can allow automation of data flows, since files can then be picked up automatically by another system/process. Note that your company must license the FTP add-on for this option to be available.
- Override Email Options - when selected, allows you to override the standard export email options and customize both the subject and the email that will be sent to the export recipient. Checking this box displays a number of additional options.
- Override Filename - allows you to override the system-generated file name. Tick this check-box to open the file name text-box. Here you can edit the system-generated name. Note that when exporting Survey Data to the FTP server in Survey Data > Exports or Data Processing rules, the Override Filename option accepts relative paths, as for example “..\..\myftpfile_in_another_folder.txt”. In this case the file will not be stored in the default folder (“ProjectsData\p123123” or “RulesData\RuleN”), but rather directly under the (Company) Download folder.
