Setting Up an Import Watcher Using File System Import
Grooper 2.70.0021
When creating an Import Watcher, on the File Disposition field in the File System Import settings, the only two options are No Change and Flag. All of the other Import options allow the ability to move a file to a different directory, similar to the way that we are using it in 2.6. Is this done by design or is this an oversight? Thank you.

The settings should be the same during a one-off import or an automated import watcher. However, the dispositions options presented are dependent upon whether you have Sparse Import enabled. Turning Sparse Import off should add Delete and Move to your list of available disposition options.5 -

There isn't a lot of documentation out there, but some important things to remember are
1. Use a fully annotated path for the path.
2. In order to move or delete source files sparse import has to be set to "false"
3. When setting up the import watcher service in Grooper config, make sure not to assign it more than one thread.
is there a specific issue you are having in setting up an import watcher?5
