Mounted File System Specific Fields

The following table describes the additional fields relevant for the Mounted File System service.

FieldSub-FieldDescriptionNotes
File Mapping List of source and target files that the service will process.
 SourceRegex logic that includes the source path where data that needs to be protected is stored along with the filter to identify specific files. For example, if you set (.*\/)input\/(.*) as the value, all the files in the input folder will be selected for processing.Click Test Regex to verify if the regex expression is valid.
 TargetRegex logic that includes the target path where processed data is stored along with other identifiers, such as appending additional tag.For example, if you set \1output/\2.processed as the value, the processed files will move to the I/output folder with .processed appended to them.Click Test Regex to verify if the regex expression is valid.
Streaming Enabling streaming lets you process a payload in smaller chunks that are broken based on delimiters defined and processed as they are chunked. Using streaming, you no longer must wait for the entire payload to process, and then transmitted. List of file processing delimiters to process file using streaming.The Text, CSV, and Binary payloads are supported. If you want to use XML/JSON payload with streaming, ensure you use the Text payload for extract rule.
 File KeyRegular Expression to look for in the payload before applying streaming (e.g. \.csv$). Streaming is applied only to requests where File Key matches the regex pattern.Click Test Regex to verify if the regex expression is valid.
 DelimiterRegular Expression used to delimit stream. Rules will be invoked on delimited streams.Click Test Regex to verify if the regex expression is valid. If the delimiter value is not matched, then the data will be processed in non-streaming mode.
Error Metrics Logging Log the metrics for error, such as total number of errors, error offset, reason for the error, and so on..
