Both the Folder Capture and the Send to Folder task read the project's Workspace path from a
global variable. The value of that variable is set by the Project Wizard when it installs the
project.
Customizing the project
A project is a great starting point for building an OL Connect solution. This part explains how to
make changes to the project.
Do you intend to expand the project into a solution where Workflow runs on a different machine
that also has a different regional setting? Then indicate the desired encoding in the Designer
preferences (see "Project Wizard deployment settings" on page840) before installing the
project.
Input data
Here's how to adjust the project to input data that has a different structure or file type or comes
from a different source.
1. Create a new data mapping configuration to match your input data. (See "Creating a new
data mapping configuration" on page196.)
2. When it's finished, send the new data mapping configuration to Workflow (see "Sending
files to Workflow" on page429).
3. Open the Workflow configuration: Print Promotional Data.
4.
Double-click the Folder Capture Input task and change the file mask, or replace the task
by the appropriate Input task. See: Input tasks in Workflow's Online Help.
5.
Double-click the All In One task and select the new data mapping configuration on the
Data Mapper tab.
Note
If the input data is JSON, you don't need a data mapping configuration: JSON data can
be used in a template as is. See: "Adding JSON data from a JSON file" on page775.
However, if you want the data to be saved in the Connect database, let the XML/JSON
Conversion plugin convert the JSON to XML and create an XML data mapping
configuration to extract the data.
