MOVEit Automation provides advanced workflow automation capabilities without the need for scripting. MOVEit Automation works with MOVEit Transfer or any other similar transfer server including FTP systems to quickly automate new workflows, significantly reducing the likelihood of error in repetitive processes.

Accelerate Task and Workflow Creation

Any authorized user may easily automate multi-step logic-based workflows and implement business process rules without needing programming skills, while Centralized management ensures that IT still has visibility and control with reporting and audit trails of all transfer activities. MOVEit Automation automatically pulls, processes, and pushes files to any platform, over any network architecture. MOVEit Automation comes with pre-built tasks, yet can be extended with custom scripting or existing scripts. A web interface enables management and modifications from any browser.

Security and Compliance

MOVEit Automation provides guaranteed delivery, PGP encryption of data at rest and granular access controls. Integration with popular anti-virus software, transport encryption, encrypted administrative access, file integrity checking and cryptographic tamper-evident logging help ensure that file transfer workflows are secure.

RESTful API Integration

RESTful API integration provides access to a wide variety of MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation services and administrative capabilities. Users can call out from MOVEit Automation tasks to external web services through PowerShell. The MOVEit REST API interface offers programmatic access to many of the administrative functions and services of MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation. It can be accessed from any scripting language including PowerShell, Python, Perl or a command line HTTP client such as Curl. It can also interoperate with third party tools that provide REST interface capabilities.
