About Connect File rules

Use a Connect File rule to define the location and name of an output file on the Pega Platform server to be created by your application.

The following tabs are available on this form:

Access

To list the Connect File rules in your application, use the Application Explorer or Configure > Integration > Connector Definitions & Simulations.

To list all Connect File rules that are available to you, use the Records Explorer.

Development

To create Connect File rules directly in your application, click Create > Integration-Connectors > Connect File.

Where referenced

Connect File rules can be referenced by an activity step that uses the Connect-File method. To write an output file from a flow rule, create an activity with Activity Type set to Connect, include the Connect-File method in an activity step, and reference the activity in an Integrator shape within the flow.
