File Handler

The file handler imports a properly-formatted requisition definition from an XML file stored locally on the server.

Configure file requisition

Prior to Horizon 30, you set external requisitions in the provisiond-configuration.xml file. This file is no longer available. You must use the UI or the config management REST API to configure an external requisition.

To configure a file requisition, follow the steps in Create an external requisition, but specify File as the type, and set the path, schedule, and rescan behavior.

Examples

Simple

file:///path/to/my/requisition.xml

Using the generic handler

requisition://file?path=/path/to/my/requisition.xml;location=MINION
