It's a powerful feature offering advanced local or remote file processing capabilities, custom logging or sending out email notifications and some well beyond the scope of a MFT server application, like invoking a shell script, HTTP calls or SQL operations, IF/ELSE like decision making, text processing, etc. Our video tutorial covers the basics

Designer

The main task flow editor window. Can add various task items by double clicking into the white space or dragging an item from the New Task icon. Most of the task items will have two connection nodes, a green and a red dot. Green path is taken on a successful execution of a task item. If it fails, the red dot path is followed, or if no error handling task flow connected, the job would fail with an error.
