Learn How to Pass Values from Process out to
Command Line
Passing values from the command line into a variable in a process is simple using the
–Set Command. What might not be so simple is to pass values from a process out to the command line as parameters. One way is to pass values into a file using the FileWrite function. To illustrate this, you could create a process then declare a variable called myVar. In a Scripting step, put in the following RIFL code:
myVar = "Hello World"
Filewrite("C:\TestEmail.bat", "c:\EmailDBA.cmd " & myVar)
msgbox(fileread("C:\TestEmail.bat"))
Then build an Application step that calls the .bat file that you just created. Put this in the command line parameter:
C:\TestEmail.bat
This will run your command with the variable passed out as a parameter.
