The FuseIT.G4S.DataExportConsole.exe application can be executed directly from the command prompt (via cmd window) or you can embed the command line in a script file.

Prerequisites

The Data Export Command Line tool requires the .NET Framework 3.5 to be available.

Without it you may see a message like:

"This app can't run on your PC
To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher"
- Windows Server 2012 R2 

See Enable .NET Framework 3.5 by using the Add Roles and Features Wizard

Usage


You can see argument help if you use: 

...

The connection string can be generated in the FuseIT SFDC Explorer, and then copied into the FuseIT.SFDC.DataExportConsole.exe.config (See Login Section). To add a connection string to the FuseIT.SFDC.DataExportConsole.exe, browse to the directory where the FuseIT.SFDC.DataExportConsole.exe was installed and open the FuseIT.SFDC.DataExportConsole.exe.config file. Find the element <connectionStrings> and insert your connection string within this tag (see screenshot below). Connection String TagsImage Removed


An example connection string (without proxy authentication):

...

  • /c:
    connectionstringname    : The name of the connection string - as specified in the FuseIT.SFDC.DataExportConsole.exe.config
  • Save path 
    Server file path where the exported zip files will be saved (enclose in "speech marks", back-slashes should be escaped)

...

Once the command line tool is configured you can automate the process by scheduling a task in Windows to invoke it at the required date and time.

Configuration Options

  1. bufferSize - The download buffer size (in kilobytes). Defaults to 16 kilobytes. Reducing may help avoid timeout issues. Increasing can improve download speed.

    Code Block
    titleBuffer Size
    <!--Set the download block size. Default set to 16k bytes -->
<add key="bufferSize" value="16"/>


  2. maxRetry - How many times to retry a download that is failing. Defaults to 3. 

    Code Block
    titleMax Retry
    <!--Set the maximum retry value. 
    If the maxRetry value is 0 the download operation will be tried only once.
    Default value is set to 3 -->
<add key="maxRetry" value="3"/>
