Splitting input files

Splitting input files

InterFormNG2 is able to split up these types of files:

  1. Spooled files
  2. XML files

If the input file is of any other type e.g. CSV or JSON, then you need to convert the input file into XML (with CSV to XML or JSON to XML) before you can split it up.

 

When you call a split function in a workflow, then the subtree to the right of the split function is executed for each of the smaller, splitted output files.
