tv_options_edit_channels Execute is an Activity that runs one or more specified object commands. This gives access to a variety of Grooper commands in a settings Batch Process for which there is no Activity, such as the "Sort Children" command for Batch Folders or the "Expand Attachments" command for email attachments.
These are simple manipulations of one kind of object or another. Do "x" command to "y" type of object. That's it. Often, no further property configuration is required other than listing what command you want to apply to what object type.
- For example, the ClearChildren command deletes the child objects of a Batch Folder in a Batch. No further configuration required. It is a very simple command applied to Batch Folder objects in aBatch.
|
The Execute activity applies one or more execution commands to an object type. To configure the activity, you must define what command you want to execute. Do this using the Commands property. |
|
|
Pressing the ellipsis button at the end of the Commands property will bring up list editor window to add one or more Commands.
|
|
|
Once you've selected an Object Type, the Command property allows you to choose the specific command you want to apply to that object in a Batch. |

Available Commands By Object Type
| Object Type | Command | Details |
| Batch Object Commands | ||
| Batch Folder | Clear Children | Deletes all child objects of the Batch Folder. This includes any subfolder Batch Folders as well as Batch Pages. |
| Remove Attachment | Deletes the locally-stored attachment file for the document folder. For example, a PDF file from the source import. | |
| Revert To Loose Pages | Deletes all subfolder Batch Folders and moves any child Batch Pages to the root of the folder level. You can optionally configure an Extension Filter property, specifying a comma-separated list of file extensions to include in the operation. | |
| Sort Children | This reorders the children of the Batch Folder. You choose to sort by either ContentType or FlagStatus in either an Ascending or Descending direction. This could be useful to move any flagged items to the top of the folder level or to group different document types together. | |
| Clear Flag | Removes any existing error flags on the Batch Folders. | |
| Remove PDF Version | Deletes the Grooper-generated PDF version from this item. Note: This would not remove the attached file for a Batch Folder generated upon import, even if that file is a PDF file. This only applies to PDF files generated from Grooper activities. | |

Glossary
Activity: Activity is a property on edit_document Batch Process Steps. Activities define specific document processing operations done to a inventory_2 Batch, folder Batch Folder, or contract Batch Page. Batch Process Steps configured with specific Activities are frequently referred by the name of the Activity followed by the word "step". For example: Classify step.
AND: AND is a Collation Provider option for pin Data Type extractors. AND returns results only when each of its referenced or child extractors gets at least one hit, thus acting as a logical “AND” operator across multiple extractors.
Batch Folder: folder Batch Folder objects are defined as container objects within a inventory_2 Batch that are used to represent and organize both folders and pages. They can hold other Batch Folders or contract Batch Page objects as children. The Batch Folder acts as an organizational unit within a Batch, allowing for a structured approach to managing and processing a collection of documents.
- Batch Folders are frequently referred to simply as "documents".
Batch Page: contract Batch Page objects represent individual pages within a inventory_2 Batch. The Batch Page object is the most granular unit in the hierarchy of Batch Objects in Grooper.
- Batch Pages are frequently referred to simply as "pages".
Batch: inventory_2 Batch objects are fundamental in Grooper's architecture as they are the containers of documents that get moved through Grooper's workflow mechanisms known as settings Batch Processes.
CMIS: CMIS (Content Management Interoperability Services) is open standard allowing different content management systems to "interoperate", sharing files, folders and their metadata as well as programmatic control of the platform over the internet.
Execute: tv_options_edit_channels Execute is an Activity that runs one or more specified object commands. This gives access to a variety of Grooper commands in a settings Batch Process for which there is no Activity, such as the "Sort Children" command for Batch Folders or the "Expand Attachments" command for email attachments.
FTP: FTP is a CMIS Connection Type that connects Grooper to FTP directories for import and export operations.
SFTP: SFTP is a CMIS Connection Type that connects Grooper to SFTP directories for import and export operations.
Split: Split is a Collation Provider option for pin Data Type extractors. Split separates a data instance at each match returned by the Data Type. The results are used as anchor points to "split" text into one or more smaller parts.
