Manual Get

The Manual Get element allows you download a file from SFTP servers that do not support full file directory paths.

Field	Definition
Basic Tab
Label	Specify a label for this action.
Source File	Specify the path and file name of a single file to download. Unlike the regular Get, the specified file name/path will not be altered in any manner and will be sent to the SFTP server as is in the GET request.
Destination File	Specify the destination file.
When File Exists	Specify the action to take when a destination file already exists. The default value is 'rename' which changes the destination file name to a new name so the existing file remains untouched. Default Value: rename
Output Variables Tab
Destination Files Variable	If desired, specify the name of a variable which will contain the successfully downloaded file on the local system. This variable will be of type File List and may be used in subsequent tasks that accept a File List input variable. The variable will be created if it does not exist.
Number of Files Downloaded Variable	If desired, specify the name of a variable which will contain the number of files downloaded. The variable may be used in subsequent tasks. The variable will be created if it does not exist.
