The structure of your XPath is a little odd. Are you missing the Root XML node in your XPath or does the XML look like this: <PreflightResultEntry level='warning'>Graphic element lies completely outside trim box (8x on page 1)Graphic element lies completely outside %BoxType%3108trim boxCheck</Prefli...

I'm not sure that's a valid call for an entry list. It should have 3 arguments like this: entryList( filter : String, filterSpec : Number, sortSpec : Number ) or in your code var FolderList = MyDir.entryList( "*.*", Dir.Files, Dir.Time); That would return all files sorted by modified date....

I believe you can also use s.copy() or s.move() to move files in the middle of the script, but that takes away a lot of Switch's built-in file handling which can be problematic.

Sorry, I don't know how to do that. You may have better luck if you post this in the Flows forum.

Probably a more elegant way to do this but:

var inputString = "1 AZ SPOCS _ IP NTF-signed.pdf";
inputString = inputString.replace(/^\d{1,2}(?=\s)/, inputString.match(/^\d{1,2}(?=\s)/) + ".0");

You could open it as a standard file and do a simple string.replace(/&/g, '&'), then save the file and send it to an XML pickup for further processing. I did something similar for corrupted csv files.

That's basically what the HP SmartStream Designer VDP Configurator does. Is there something you want to do that can't be handled by the configurator?

You'll probably want to focus on sorting the XML files based on some kind of information inside them. To do this I'd look at two elements in Switch: 1. Assemble Job - Assemble job can group files based on file name patterns, or numbers in files which should encapsulate orders with the series you lis...

How are the jobs coming into Switch? Is there some type of metadata file (i.e. XML) that has all the information about these files that comes with the PDF?

Maybe a silly question, but is the outgoing connection(s) from the script set up as a stop light connection with a valid data connection? That undefined message could possibly be due to the sendToData not being a valid output location. Based on the documentation this should throw an error message, b...

This line doesn't seem right to me: var theDestPath = job.createPathWithName(job.getNameProper(), false) + "." + ext; // create a temp spot to copy You're creating a temp location and then adding an extension to the variable that references the location, so when you send files to that loca...

replace the node index [7] with something unique to that node. For example:

[Metadata.Text:Path="/field-list/field[@Id='spMF_7_3']/value",Dataset="Submit",Model="XML"]

That way the order of the elements doesn't matter.

I know the output to the ganging configurator is a traffic light connection, and you need to have at least one connection coming out that carries types of Data. In the working flow I had I believe I set one connection coming out and set the "Carry jobs of this type" to "Data and Log&q...

Once you have the file opened as a DOM you can use: Document.evalToString() / .evalToNumber() / evalToBoolean() functions to get the data you want: var isbn = doc.evalToString("/Books/Book/Publisher/@ISBN", null); If you search in the Switch Scripter help for "Evaluating XPath" t...

I'm not sure if the HTTP element uses SSL or not, that would be a possible hangup.
