Integration Task: Command Line

The Command Line task allows administrators to trigger an external application from within an Integrify Process – opening up the use of the operating system as well as a variety of languages, frameworks, and tools.

Availability: OnPremise installation only.

Note: The appPool identity will require access to perform commands.  Custom applications built for our Command Line task may require programming expertise that is outside of Integrify services and support.

Training Example:

In our training example we have created a process to allow a user to run and capture their IPConfig settings. Below, the configuration screen shows the basic settings entered:

The Query Parameters tab allows you to set the location of variable data for the Command Line.

In our training example, a user can enter specific IPCONFIG prompts in the first form of the process. This value is mapped below as a data source:

When a request using the process above executes, the data is returned and stored within the Task History:
