Evaluating metadata to connection paths

[AA5MC]

Hello,

I have metadata that has a file path, now without scripting is there a way to compare the metadata to a outgoing folder?

For example:
In the metadata I have D:\myprinter1

and I have two out going connection to folders: myprinter1 and myprinter2

What I like to do ( again without scripting ) is the be able evaluate the metadata and route the file to the proper printer.
I know I can script this very easily however, I like to know if there is a way to decide what connection route to used base on the metadata.


thank you

Mike

Right click on the connection and select "Include these jobs" and use Metadata.

Thank you for the replay.

We uses these function all the time.

What I was asking : Within the variables set is there a built-in variable that gives you the path (Preferable) or folder name of the out going connection .
if my out going connection is D:\temp for example is there a variable that will give me that information?

thank you for your help.

You can place anything you want in private data, so when routing a job you can make sure that different folders define the same private data key with different values.
