Using Document Automation Server (DAS) Content Extraction from the command line

DAS Content Extraction can be accessed via the command line to run rules that have already been created in the Graphical User Interface (GUI). You can also run DAS Content Extraction directly from the command line.

The executable used for running DAS Content Extraction from the command line is Kingfisher.Commandline.exe.

Using Job Definition File

This is the preferred and safest method to run DAS Content Extraction from the command line. This method ensures you set up the job correctly and you are sure of what it does.

If you create a job in DAS Content Extraction, an xml job definition file is automatically created in the conditions folder within the installation Directory.

Information

When using the command line option, the xml file can be stored in a different location if required. For example, "c:\mydocuments\1001.xml". Thus, a working copy of definitions can be stored in a different (possibly less secure) location to the original.

Usage

Kingfisher.Commandline.exe -jobfile=“..\\conditions\\1001.xml”
