File body

Specifies a template for the information to include in the body of the output file created by a step based on the BuildFileFromProperties step template. A version of the template is added to the file for each document listed in the document properties file for the job.

You can include the values of both job and document properties in the body of the output file, though the body is primarily intended for document properties. The values for job properties are the same for each document.

Default
None
Database name
Job.FileBody
Usage notes:
  • The output file can be any text format, including XML, JSON, and CSV. If the file format requires a delimiter between each occurrence of the template, do not include that delimiter in this field. Use the Delimiter property instead.
  • To include document and job values in the output, specify those properties using symbol notation. The symbols are placeholders for the values of the document and job properties. For more information about symbol notation and how to use it, refer to the help system.
  • If the spool directory does not contain a document properties file, the File body property is ignored.
  • For examples of output created by defining values for this property, File header, Delimiter, and File footer, see the topic about the BuildFileFromProperties step template in the help system.
