Introduction to Commands

EFT Server's Commands can execute programs, scripts, or batch files with or without command line arguments, providing administrators almost limitless extensibility. These Commands can be invoked directly by a user from their client (if permitted by the Server administrator) or as an automated Action from EFT Server’s Event Rules.

When the Event Rule is triggered, EFT Server executes the specified custom Command and attributes. To configure EFT Server to execute Commands, you first create the command, then add the command to an Event Rule. In the administration interface, the Commands appear in the tree in the left pane within the Site for which they are defined.

With the Server tab selected, when you click the Commands node in the left pane, the Commands List appears in the right pane.
