When a Data Flow runs, data is transferred from one Endpoint to another. Data Flows run automatically, manually, or when scheduled.
Automatic
In some cases, Data Flows run without any direct intervention, for example, when the source Endpoint is a Partner Mailbox or an AS2 server. In these cases, the Data Flow runs when data is "dropped" on the Endpoint--you cannot cause such a Data Flow to run any other way.
Manual
In cases where the source Endpoint is File System, FTP, or SFTP, you can run a Data Flow manually.
- Go to Integrations > Data Flows and select a Data Flow. The Data Flow edit page displays.
- Click the Run Now button.
Scheduled
In cases where the source endpoint is File System, FTP, or SFTP, you can schedule a Data Flow to run at some point in the future. You can specify multiple schedules for a Data Flow. All schedules you set up are recurring.
- Go to Integrations > Data Flows and select a Data Flow. The Data Flow edit page displays.
- Click Add Schedule.
The Schedule dialog box displays.
- Select a time zone. All the schedules you add will be relative to the time zone you select.
- Select an interval type – Minutes, Hourly, Daily, Weekly or Monthly.
Note: The smallest interval supported is 1 minute.
- For Minutes, choose an interval in minutes and a starting point in seconds for each interval.
- For Hourly, choose an interval in hours and a starting point in minutes and seconds for each interval.
- For Daily, choose either an interval in days and a starting pointing in hours, minutes, and seconds, or choose to run at every working day and specify a starting time.
- For Weekly, select the days on which you want the Data Flow to run and specify a starting time.
- For Monthly, select either of the following:
- A numerical day of the month (for example, the 15th of the month), an interval in months (for example, every 3 months), and a starting time. Should the day of the month fall on a non-working day, you can specify that the Data Flow should run on the weekday that falls closest to the scheduled start time.
- A day of the week and its order (for example, the second Tuesday of the month), an interval in months (for example, every 3 months), and a starting time.
- Click Advanced to specify a schedule using Quartz Cron notation. See Using Cron Expressions in CIC Scheduler for more information.
Note: The smallest interval supported is 1 minute.
- Click Add additional schedule to set another time to run the Data Flow.
