I've created a custom tool. I've set-up a folder monitor. But how do I get the tool to run on files that have been identified by the monitor? Each works on its own, but when I add a file to the folder, it doesn't run the tool. I know the monitor is working, because it moves the file. The tool works on its own when I manually run it and tell it what file to use.
Is there an input file option I'm not seeing to receive the files identified by the monitor?

Re: Monitors and Choose Input Files
I figured it out. I didn't notice that the rename step in my tool was prompting the user and since interaction was disabled, the flow was failing.
Now I'm facing a loop! Is there a way to tell the monitor to ignore the file already processed or do I need to move it to another folder?

Re: Monitors and Choose Input Files
Hello bcarvalho,
It would be best to tell your tool/monitor to move files it has already processed to a separate folder, so that both you and the tool can know which files have already been processed.
Kind regards,
Stefan
