Decrypt Files
The Decrypt task allows you to decrypt files from a directory or
from a directory tree.
Important:
Normally an encrypted file has an extension like .pgp or .gpg at the
end. To remove this extension, you need to Fill BOTH the Filename
and Rename Filename fields. Please see the example in the Rename
Filename section.
Profile
Select the decryption profile that will
be used to decrypt the file (or files). You should create a
decryption profile before creating a decryption task.
Decryption profiles for password decryption, or for private key
decryption are supported. This task also supports signature
verification using public key.
Source Directory
Enter the full pathname of the
directory where your source files exist.
Filename
Enter the
filename filter for the files you wish to decrypt using
the following wildcard rules. This field also supports dynamic
variables. Using dynamic variables, you can select a file
based on current date/time. The above wildcard rules only apply for
the file to pass the filename filter. If the file passes the
filename filter, then its new name will depend on the Rename Filename
field.
Rename Filename
It is recommended that you
always fill in this field for the decrytion task. Please see
Rename Help.
Examples:
Actual
Filename = test.txt.gpg
Filename field entry = .txt.gpg
Rename
Filename field entry = .txt
Resulting Decrypted Filename =
test.txt
Actual Filename = test.txt.gpg
Filename field
entry = .gpg
Rename Filename field entry =
(blank)
Resulting Decrypted Filename = test.txt
Folder Path Filter
Leave
this field blank if you want all folders to be processed. If you need
specific folders to be processed, then enter the folder name or path,
using the following wildcard rules.
If a folder passes the filter, then all its subfolders will also pass
the filter.
Simple Example: Folder = c:\test , subfolders =
john, john\old, sam, sam\old, joe, joe\old
Folder path filter =
john . john and john\old are processed
Folder
path filter = jo . john,
john\old, joe, joe\old are processed
Folder path filter = old
. sam\old, john\old, joe\old are processed
Folder path
filter = test . all files in c:\test
and its sub folders are processed
Folder path filter = john\old.
only john\old is processed.
Folder path filter = c:\test\john
. john and john\old are processed
Target Directory
Enter the full path name of the
directory where you need to put the target files.
Place files in new subdirectory
If you select
"None", no new subdirectory is created within the Target
Directory.
If you select Date, a new subdirectory based on the
date, is created within the Target Directory. All files are placed in
this directory.
If you select Date/Time, a new subdirectory based
on date and time is created within the Target Directory. All files
are placed in this directory.
Include subdirectories
If you select this
option, all subdirectories and decrypted files (within the Source
Directory) are created in the Target Directory. If a
subdirectory does not exist within the Target directory, then it is
automatically created.
Date Filter
If you need to filter files based on
file modified date, select this option. For the between option, enter
2 values separated by '-' (2-4 etc.). Examples:
Older than 5
Minute, Newer than 2 Day, Between 3-5 Day, Between 1-4 Hour
