General tab

This tab is used to set connection parameters to the FortisBlue Content Management System.

Option Description
Activate Activate the component according to a condition. If the component stays inactivated, it will not perform any actions with files.

See more information on conditions in Conditional Activation.

This option is only present in the eConnector component.
Pass through Select this check box if you want the document to be passed to the subsequent components in the workflow.

This option is only present in the eConnector component.
Connection group
Server URL In this field, specify the address of the server. The server address should represent the following string:

protocol://server_id

Where:
  • protocol is a protocol used for accessing the server. Protocol can be omitted; in this case, HTTP will be used by default.
  • server_id is either the name of the host machine where the server is running, or its IP address.

The following examples provide you with sample references:

  • https://192.168.3.15
  • fortisblue-1
Ignore invalid certificate Select this check box to ignore errors when you connect to the server using an invalid SSL server certificate.

When you select this check box, the component will try to connect to the server ignoring the invalid certificate. If this check box is not selected and the validation of server certificate returns an error, the component will reject files at run time.

This check box is only available when you enter an HTTPS protocol in the Server URL field.
Login Enter the name (login) of the user account of the FortisBlue server that you will use to enter the server.
Obtain password via RRT Check this box if you want to obtain the password via RRT at run time.
Password Enter the password of the user account specified in the Login field.
Password RRT Enter an expression consisting of RRTs that will be replaced by the actual password at run time.

This field supports and returns values for encrypted by restricted RRTs. For more information, see Encrypted Field RRTs.
Timeout Specify the connection timeout in seconds. The default value for timeout is 100 seconds.
Test connection Click this button to test the connection to the server.
Note: The FortisBlue system retains user credentials in the cache. If the configuration was saved with valid parameters, the test will still be successful if you reenter the configuration with an invalid password.
Destination group
Database Enter the target database name or click the browse button (...) to select the database from the list of existing databases.
Folder Specify the folder, including the path to it, where the documents will be stored. The folders can be separated by a back or forward slash (\ or /). If the field is left empty, the document will be uploaded to the root folder of the database. If the folders specified in the path do not exist, they will be created.
Rename file Check this box to rename the uploaded file. Enter the rename scheme into the text field. The default scheme is ~FTB::FileName~_~FTB::Counter,3~~FTB::FileExt~, which renames documents by adding the count number. For example, the file named 'Document.doc' will be renamed to 'Document_001.doc' if there are no documents with the same name in the destination folder.
