Task Source

A source defines a single location from which files are obtained for use in a task. Each source is a reference to a host. A task can have an unlimited number of sources.

You can add sources to traditional and advanced tasks. After Transfer source settings are only available for traditional tasks.

Prerequisite: Before you add a source to a task, you must have already added the host that the source references. For example, to add a source that is a folder on a MOVEit Transfer server, you must have previously added a MOVEit Transfer host for that server. For more information, see Hosts.
