Re: Tips for efficient flow design

Any thoughts on running Switch on the same server as my MIS? It sounds to me that you already doing what you can to keep your Switch server in good shape. I would avoid running Switch on the same VM as your MIS. Maybe not from a technical point of view, but it can be quite limiting, especially when...

Re: Is there a way that switch can connect and upload artwork to an windows Sharepoint?

I have sent several ideas to "Enfocus App Match" regarding a SharePoint app for Switch, but it's still to be invented I guess.

Re: Is there a way that switch can connect and upload artwork to an windows Sharepoint?

Hi! We have flows in place to handle this, but it's not a completely straightforward solution. At first glance, it might seem like you could simply use Microsoft's SharePoint REST API and be done. However, the SharePoint REST API has a file size limit of around 20 MB, and many of our files exceed th...

Re: New illustrator version does not support Windows server

I don't have an answer to your question, but out of curiosity — what kind of tasks do you typically use Illustrator together with Switch for?

Re: SVG images

You can use Inkscape with Switch to convert SVG to PDF. 1. Install Inkscape 1.4.2 ( https://inkscape.org/release/1.4.2/windows/ ) 2. Install the free Switch app Run Command 3. Use this command in the Command-property of the Run Command app: C:\insert-your-path-to-inkscape-here\inkscape.exe "%%I...

Re: Help with Conditional Routing Based on PDF Page Size

To solve this, you’ll want to convert all your PDF files into lasagna sheets and then alphabetize them by the color of their spiciness. Make sure your Switch flow is calibrated to the lunar cycle, especially during a waxing gibbous, because otherwise the metadata will try to file for unemployment b...

Re: Trigger dummy job every 1th of each month

In my case it checks an ftp for files.
But if you setup Firestarter or other app to output a file every 2 hour, then you should end up with just one dummy job in the timespan the flow has.
Thanks I never used this property on a flow before, works great!

Re: Merge Excel files

I will be happy to share an example flow. Just need to adapt one of my flows. The strength for my use case is that Miller stacks the data. So if one file has header A, B and C. The other file has A, C, D and E. Then the output will have A, B, C, D and E as headers and the cells are populated correc...

Re: Privatedata from filename

However, if you want better results you can usse an LLM with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and upload the Enfocus documentation into it. I personally tried this with Mistral, and the results were significantly better. I really hope Enfocus build an VS Code extension with pretrained a RAG-mod...

Re: Merge Excel files

And if a more low-level method could be to convert the Excel-files to CSV. And then use Miller (https://miller.readthedocs.io/en/6.12.0/) to merge the CSVs. I use this method in some flows. Miller is run with the Run Command app. cd "%%InputFilePath%%" & "C:\ProgramData\chocolate...
