In short, the file transport type simply sends the message to a hard drive on the local network in the folder specified in the configuration options. 

File Configuration

File Path

The full path to a regular file folder on your network.

Username/Password

If the process that is running your Link does not have access to the specified folder, you can enter the username and password of a user who has the necessary privileges. Click 'Show' to reveal the password – if the user is set up for this.

Write to temp. file

Check this if you want Link to first create a temporary file and then rename it after creation is complete.

Copy mode

Here you have four options:

• None: No action is taken.
• Append to existing file: If a file with the same filename exists, append content to that file.
• Create new file: A new file will always be created.
• Overwrite existing file: If a file with the same filename exists, overwrite it.

Note that fields marked with * are required.
