Pulling run group for GL165 using IPA

I want to read a file and pull the first field, in the first record, and use that to populate the Run-Group1 field in the GL165 job parameters (using LwsnTxn to generate the GL165 and then WebRun to run it). I'm thinking I need to somehow use Data Iterator to grab this data and pass it along to the LwsnTxn node to populate the field in the job. I was hoping maybe someone could share something they've done to help me get started in the right direction? All my other pieces are working (FTP, etc) but having some struggles with this. Thanks in advance. - Laura

Laura, here is how to read your file. Use the variable in the assign node to populate your GL165. [View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/57/Read.lpd.txt:320:240]

Well, I was not expecting that grossness! Download the file and remove the .txt extension so see the flow in IPD.

LOL. Tried removing the ".txt" and the file name was Read.lpd but I can't open it in IPD. Getting an error message statins -- Element type "Process" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>"

Any thoughts??

You need to fix the 2nd line, it has to many quotes. Just edit it in notepad and then save it.
This is correct and then it opens fine.
<process id="Readtitle" service="" priority="0" className="FgProcess" designerVersion="9.1.0" schemaVersion="1.0" connectionName="">

Got it - thanks!

Thanks Lance! Is there a better way to upload a sample flow to this site? I had never done it before, and when I originally tried to just upload the .lpd file, it would not allow that extension.

To upload a sample flow; rename the .lpd on your PC to .xml

1. Click Reply

2. Click "Use Rich Formatting"

3. Click Insert image/video/file

4. Change From Field to FileUpload, and browse to the XML file.

Other community user's should only have to download and rename the .xml to .lpd. I am going to send an email and see if they will allow the .lpd extension on the webserver to take out that step.

Thanks for the pro tip Russ!
