Re: RegEx Rename job
It's really much easier to see if you are getting correct results by having a "live" test job in the flow that has actual data attached to it. Let's go back to what you are trying to accomplish. From your original post, you want to create a folder that is named after some incoming email da...

Re: RegEx Rename job
I feel your pain. I am also trying to learn Javascript as I go in creating more advanced flows. I find myself scouring the Switch 2018 scripting help file and also looking online and in these forums for various answers. It can seem very overwhelming, especially since there is not much available help...

Re: Developer version of Switch
Well, I need to have them on both servers. So, guess that means I have to buy two licenses moving forward. I was hoping that there was a free or lower-cost "developer" version for non-production servers. The development server I will be designing flows on will be installed on my laptop.

Re: RegEx Rename job
Try setting the data you need to private data items as soon as the job comes in. Run the script on just the private data item that contains the special characters. The rest should not be touched. With the most recent version of Switch. there is an option in the folder properties to set private data ...

Developer version of Switch
Quick question to anyone who would know: My company has finally authorized the purchase of a developer Switch installation that mirrors our production model. So, I finally get to test and create without having to worry about crashing the system anymore (it has happened). However, we have purchased s...

Re: Submit point script expression question
After some more thought, I decided to go another way. I downloaded the "private-data-write" script from open-automation's GITHUB page. I will just assign all the xml form entries to private data. The downloaded script also allows a script expression to be entered to resolve the data for th...

Submit point script expression question
I need to fill in a default value for a submit point metadata field. Is it possible to use a script expression to create a value, using previously entered selections in the submit point form? For instance, I have field where the user selects a type of product. Another value necessary to pass in the ...

Re: Switch 2018 u2 update WARNING!!!!!!!
I see the update has posted for Switch 2018 (up3), but no update for Pitstop Server 2018. Also, my installed version (18.0.1.0) says it is up-to-date when I check for updates. Since I can only update our system on the weekend, and on my own time, I like to do updates together. Was the mentioned upda...

Re: Flow to create Excel files and merge rows of all
Creating a new file sounds like something a script would handle. Perhaps you should post a request in the scripting flow. You will need the scripting module installed, though.

Re: Permanently embed preflight xml in PDF file
Great, I'll give it a shot. We are an envelope printing company and I want to be able to preflight incoming files and add the successful preflights to the files so I don't have to run a preflight on repeat orders (for sorting by color, size, etc...). Hopefully, this will do it.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

Re: Permanently embed preflight xml in PDF file
Unless I'm doing something wrong, I don't see where the preflight results are stored in the PDF.
I want certain results embedded so I can do metadata sorting without have to run the files through Pitstop Server repeatedly.

Re: Permanently embed preflight xml in PDF file
I'll play around with it, thanks for the heads up.
How detailed is that info? I'm most interested in number of colors, color space and separation names.

Permanently embed preflight xml in PDF file
Does anyone know of a way using the tools available with Switch/Pitstop Server to make the PDF's preflight report permanently a part of the file? I know it is available inside of the flows as external data, but I would like it to be available once the file has exited the Switch flow and is no longer...
