  Files are used in various places within HCL Link. HCL Link allows files to be uploaded to the HCL Linkserver.

Input card settings

Input card settings specify what data to retrieve, where to get it, how much to get, and what to do when an error occurs.

The Input card settings define how the input is retrieved. The data object specified in the input card defines what data is retrieved. The Input card settings define how the data is retrieved.

To define card-specific data retrieval behavior, specify the Input card settings for each input card. An input card represents an input source. The content of an input is a data object such as a table of patient records in a relational database, a message that contains a mortgage application, or a file of item master update records that is transferred from another location using the FTP adapter.

The content of an input card is defined with the card Name, Schema, Type Name settings. The source of the data is defined by specifying the Connection and Action properties. These provide the configuation of an adapter to fetch data using a Link adapter.
