Copies a file or list of files, with the root folder being the user's top-level directory visible in the Files page.

Copies the report's output files to the specified file system destination, with the root folder being the user's top-level directory visible in the Files page.

You:

• Must put the CSV file along with your report templates in the same input folder that you specify when creating a schedule.
• Can use an asterisk in the macro as a wildcard at the end of the filename.

Using asterisks in Filenames

If more than one matching file is found, these rules apply:

• If there are 2 filenames, TextFileC and TextFileZ, the alphanumerically LAST filename is used.
• Where filenames contain dates (e.g recentdate20140201 and recentdate20150423), the filename which contains the most recent date is used, even if the other file was modified more recently.
• If you had TextFileZ20150323 and TextFileC20150701, the alphanumerically last filename is used and takes precedence over filenames containing dates and both of these take precedence over most recently modified files.

Executes a file of one of the supported types.

Determines whether a file exists. This can be used to check that an image or text file exists before trying to include it in a report.

The result is either 'true' or 'false'.

The fileName parameter:

• should reference a file in the same folder as the report template.
• must not start with '/'.
• must not contain '..'.

Accessing subfolders is not supported.

Inserts a file image into the report.

Lists files matching the specified pattern, with the root folder being the user's top-level input directory. The result is either 'true' or 'false'.

The fileName parameter:

• should reference a file in the same folder as the report template.
• must not start with '/'.
• must not contain '..'.

Accessing subfolders is not supported.

Use the [File.LoadVariables:] macro to set report variables from an external CSV file which is in the same folder as the input document.

Structure of the CSV file

The CSV file, which should be in the same directory as the input document, must contain only two columns:

• DocumentProperty: (with this capitalisation) which is the document property name.
• Value: the value which will be substituted in the report.

Insert a cell from an external XLSX file into the report

You:

• Must put the xlsx file along with your report templates in the same input folder that you specify when creating a schedule.
• Can use an asterisk in the macro as a wildcard at the end of the filename.
