File-based interface via migration job

Hello all, 

We are in the process of designing a simple interface via file. IFS should output a status (stock per type) to a file and save it to a specified location. 

Now this could be done relatively easy via a migration job. Does anyone already have experience with this or such a regular export via the migration job in use? 

The official suggestion for the interface is via the APIs. But this seems to be quite complex. 

Thank you already for your feedback.

Hi @SinaR 

please have a look into the technical documentation for IFS Cloud. There is a really good example for your request.

 

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/22r1/030_administration/050_data_management/050_data_migration/030_migration_types/010_file_migration/030_create_output_file/

 

If you also want to have a header line in your output file then set the rule FILEHEAD in your migration job to Active.

Thank you very much. 

In particular, for us, the question is whether we can use this as an "interface" or if this will cause problems. We intend to use it to create a regular job that automatically performs the file export / import.
