Export a file to a local machine folder using automation script

Hi,

I have a file from a DMA that needs to be exported to local machine via automation script.

My first option was to write the script to email the file but it did not seem to work as it seems there is an issue with the server’s smtp settings. So I was wondering if it is possible to export the file to a dedicated local machine folder.

Could you please advise if it is possible to do it via automation script?

Thanks

Hi Paul,
Can you double check the comment in your initial question:

And let us know if updating the SMTP settings solve the issue?

Hi Paul,

You can achieve this through the Download Button with an interactive automation script.

*Note, this seems to require DataMiner version 10.3.7 (or later).
