Re: HTTP request v20+ not expanding switch variables (maybe?)
Freddy shared a helpful workaround to resolve this issue. Solution: Insert double square brackets ([[) for the array’s opening bracket (but not at the last bracket). This prevents conflicts with Switch meta-data brackets while still producing valid JSON for the endpoint. Example: { "company&quo...

Re: HTTP request v20+ not expanding switch variables (maybe?)
Isn't the problem that hard brackets [ ] is used for both Switch variables and the array in the JSON? I use this clunky work-a-round: Using Create text file to create a JSON but for the array brackets I instead use the place-holder-text startarray and stoparray .

Re: Switch flow
1. In the Preflight output connection "Carry this type of jobs" you choose 'Data with log'.
2. In the Checkpoint you set "Enable report viewing" to Yes.

Re: Creating variables from Pitstop report xml
I was thinking of the same solution, but how would you add leading zeros when one file is names 57 and another 158 (to get 0057 and 0158)?

Re: Creating variables from Pitstop report xml
I can think of a couple of ways to do this. Do you have the scripting module for Switch?

Re: Mail Receive with OAuth2.0

Re: Naming and keeping track of jobs that have been imposed

A great starting point is to involve the press operators and ask what information they need in the fi...
