Assemble job getting Job.FileCount wrong

I'm assembling a job that had previously been ungrouped. I have it set up to include the number of files in the resulting job name but it keeps putting in 1 instead of the actual number. The scheme is "ungrouped job", the private data key is "Ungroup", and the number of files is ...

Re: Acting on only one file from a job folder

Yes, all the files with a specific J number come in in a zip file which I am unzipping in a prior step. All the text files within one J number have the same number of pages. I almost have a script written to do this part ahead of switch so it's not urgent.

I have a job folder come in with sereval files in it. They are PDFs containing texts and covers.

Rename files based on property of another file

A job which consists of one text file and several cover files enters a flow. Is it possible to rename the cover files based on the number of pages in the text file? The renaming will then be used to direct the cover to other folders. Also, there will sometimes be more than one text file but I only n...

Archive Hierarchy vs Assemble Job

The Merge PDF element requires a folder of PDF files. I'm trying to use Archive Hierarchy in front to re-assemble some PDFs into a folder that Merge PDF can use. For some reason, it complains that "the job is not a folder". It works when I use Assemble Job, but that doesn't let me put the ...

Re: Padding the suffix in the split element

Thanks, but that doesn't do what I want. I'm already using the [index] as a suffix but I want to modify it by padding it to 3 digits using the javascript padstart method.

Padding the suffix in the split element

I'm using the split element to split files and I'm adding "#[index]" as a suffix. This works as an inline value. However, the split element pads the index to the number of digits in the original page count of the original file. If the original file had 7 pages, then the suffix for the firs...

Routing jobs based on lookup from data file

I currently have a flow that routes jobs(PDF files) based on part of the file name(job.name). They all start in one input folder and are routed to one of 9 different output folders. Each connector is using a "condition with variables defined" that contains multiple conditions OR'd together...
