Conditions tab allows choosing what kind of file and directory changes to detect in a remote WebDAV server.

ConditionsDetails
Watch for new files Detect newly created and uploaded files.
Watch for new and existing files Detect newly created files as well as the files already existing in the specified directory.
Watch for deleted files Detect when the files are deleted.
Watch for modified files Activating this option allows the WebDAV Watcher to identify changes in file content, whether they involve alterations in size or timestamp. It provides thorough file modification monitoring.
Ignore timestamp When Watch for modified files is enabled, this option directs the WebDAV Watcher to disregard alterations in file date and time, focusing exclusively on size changes. This helps to prevent unnecessary Task execution due to timestamp-only updates.

Remember that during file creation or uploading, the Watcher might detect intermediate file states.

This option is not applicable to directory monitoring.
Watch for file count in directory Detect when the total number of files exceed the specified threshold. Always returns the oldest file, enabling sequential processing to ensure all files are handled in a predictable manner.
Watch for file size that is greater than Detect files that are larger than a particular size.
Size unitsSize units selectionSet file size limits in any preferred format—bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, or terabytes.

Note

  • When watching for New and existing files, File size or File count, the WebDAV Watcher waits for all currently running Task instances to finish, before triggering again. This behavior can be changed with a Registry override.
