Detailed Description


The Execute action operates as if the entire secondary script contents were included in the primary script.

Note
  • FilePath will validate if both the folder path is correct and the file itself exists.

Example Script

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<YtriaAutomation Version="1.0" Application="databaseEZ" ApplicationVersion="16.5" Console="true">
<Load Server="Acme01/ACME" partial="true">
<Load Database="AutoTest\lm_us_8.nsf" Select="True"/>
<Load Database="AutoTest\lm_nab_8.nsf" Select="True"/>
<Load Database="AutoTest\info_s03.nsf" Select="True"/>
<Load Database="storebackup.ntf" Select="True"/>
</Load>
<Execute FilePath = "C:\dev\Temp_XML\databaseEZ_secondaryscript.xml"/>
<GridDataComposition FilePath = "C:\dev\Temp_XML\databaseEZ-grid1.xml"/>
</ytriaAutomation>

In the script above, the databases indicated in the Load block will be loaded into the main grid of databaseEZ, and the file "databaseEZ_secondaryscript.xml" will be executed as if the entire contents of the secondary script were included in the Execute line's position. A pre-saved grid configuration file "databaseEZ_grid1.xml" will then be applied to the main grid.
