| This plugin allows you to post process files using a powerful set of tasks. You can move files, rename them, copy them, execute external programs, write text files, use date variables, multithread operations, copy to FTP/FTPS/SFTP servers, etc. |
| __IMPORTANT: due to the security updates since CrushFTP version 10.5.2+ any JDBC driver jar file needs to be placed into the CrushFTP10/plugins/lib/ directory, or it won't load.__ |

| This task allows for running an external process. This can allow outside integration processes to be performed. The output of these programs are fed into the log for this task to allow for monitoring of its results. keep in mind in windows, running a bat file requires running cme.exe, and passing in the arguments for cmd.exe to execute the batch file. |

| or sh , /bin/bash , etc. for a linux shell script, etc.\\ |
| *__Argument:__ the list of arguments passed to Command, the list items separated by __Separator__ character ";" (semicolon) by default. In case running scripts, here comes\\ |

Alternatively, you can always reference {last_execute_log} which is the last one for that entire job, not specific to one particular one. This is useful when just calling execute and not passing in a list of items to that task. |

| This task will jump to a specified job, and task item. If the job is left empty, then the task in the current job will be located and used. If a job is jumped to, the task that matches the name will be the starting point in that job. Jumping to a job is only possible for enterprise licenses. Once the jumped to job is complete, the task will continue on to the next step of the current job. |

| Jump also has the special ability to "group" matching items together and call the "true" task with each grouping of items. This might be useful for example to group files together based on extension, or based on their modified date's Month, etc. The syntax for grouping is to use the left side condition of "GROUPBY" then matches pattern, then use some expression on the right side like {MMM} for example. |

| This will unzip a file that is in the list. Its suggested you filter down on *.zip to only get valid items in case of a mixed list of items. The external unzip method will call the OS's unzip utility to unzip. This will only work on OS X, or Linux / Unix based systems. Otherwise the internal method will work too. |

| [{Image src='sql_task.jpg' width='..' height='..' align='left' style='..' class='..' }] |
|
|
| !parameters: |
| *DB Driver: the JDBC driver class name.\\ |
| *DB Driver File: the JDBC driver jar file path on server.\\ |
| *DB URL: the SQL server URL we connect to.\\ |
| *DB User, DB Password: the login credentials of the DB query account.\\ |
| *Query: input field for the SQL statement or script.\\ |
| The __Rollback if a transaction fails__ flag if set, the task signals the SQL server before issuing the transaction to automatically roll back in case of a runtime error was raised. |
| \\ |
| !input: |
| Generic list items passing from the previous task. Input fields also accept server variables, where it makes sense. |
| !output: |
| The SQL task will feed it's output to the next task item, if any. The DB table column names can be used as server variables, enclosed within curly brackets, to reference table cell values of a row. The next task will usually loop through the rows list. |
