Description
im copytrigger copies the details of an existing event trigger for workflows and documents and creates a new trigger. Copying a trigger is useful for quickly creating a new trigger that shares common details with an existing trigger. Any options that are used override the settings in the original trigger.
When naming a copied trigger, you cannot use a name that already exists.
An event trigger for workflows and documents contains a list of script files that Windchill RV&S runs based on either a defined rule, or a scheduled query. Event triggers must reside on the server machine, where the Windchill RV&S Server executes them. Windchill RV&S does not support client-side event triggers for workflows and documents. As a result, all references must be relative to the server. For more information on event triggers, see the Windchill RV&S Help Center.
Options
This command takes the universal options available to all
im commands, as well as some general options. See the
options reference page for descriptions.
• --name=name
specifies the name of the trigger. May be a maximum of 100 characters and cannot contain square brackets. If not specified, the name is recorded as Copy of original trigger name.
• --type=[scheduled|rule|timeentry|copytree|branch|label|testresult|lock|unlock]
specifies the type of trigger. If you do not specify a type, rule is specified by default. If you specify timeentry, the values for --rule, ruleFile, --runAs, --frequency, --assign, and --query are ignored.

|
Scheduled event triggers are evaluated on the Windchill RV&S Server’s time zone.
|
• --runAs=user
specifies the user for a scheduled trigger. All modifications appear as though they were made by the specified user.
• --query=[user:]query
specifies the name of the query and to use for a scheduled trigger, and the username of the user who created the query.
• --position=<number>|first|last|before:<name>|after:<name>
specifies the position of trigger in the run order.
• --description=value
specifies description of what the trigger does.
• --frequency=[manual|hourly|daily|monthly]
specifies the frequency of a scheduled trigger. May be the following:
[manual]
[hourly [start=[00:]mm] [hours=00,01,...,23]]
[daily [start=hh:mm] [days=mon,tue,...]]
[monthly [start=hh:mm] [day=1-31] [months=jan,feb,...]]
• --script=filename
specifies the filename of the script, for example, scriptfile.js. The script must be located under the following directory: <installdir>/data/triggers/scripts.
• --scriptParams=[arg=value[;arg2=value2...]]
specifies the list of script arguments.
• --scriptTiming=[pre|post|pre,post|none]
specifies if the script should be run pre, post, both pre and post on issue commit to the database, or no timing is associated with the script. If you do not specify an option, none is specified by default.
• --assign=[field='Value1';'Field2'='Value2'...]]
specifies the list of field assignments.
• --rule=<rule>
specifies the rule to associate with the trigger. For the rule syntax, see Specifying Rules on the

• To specify a date and time for a date field, use the MM/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss [AM|PM] format. You can specify a time only if the date field is configured to display the time. To specify the current date and a time of 00:00:00 (midnight) for a date field, type today. This option can be specified only if the date field is configured to display the date. To specify the current date and time for a date field, type now. This option can be specified only if the date field is configured to display the date and time. To specify an empty value for the date field, type none.
• When specifying a user, you can choose yourself by specifying "me". "me" is a symbolic user which refers to the currently logged in user. For example, you could create an event trigger that specifies Project issues can only be edited if the currently logged in user is one of the users defined in the multi-valued Stakeholders field.
• Configuration management project fields are invalid in event trigger rules.
|
• --copyRule=trigger
copies the given trigger's rule as it exists at the time of the copy. This is not a pointer to another rule.
• --ruleFile=filename
--rule for notes on the command use and where to obtain file format information.
• trigger
specifies the name of the trigger you want to copy.
