Description

Suppress Encoding

If enabled, the agent will not encode the incoming data. It expects a raw byte array as the input type and will pass it through untouched. This mode is used when only a header and/or a trailer is added to a data batch.

Encoder

List of available encoders introduced via the Ultra Format Editor, as well as the default built-in encoder for the internal format (MZ format tagged UDRs).



Note!

The  Header  and  Trailer  tabs are described in Encoder Agent Services Batch. The use and setting of private threads for an agent, enabling multi-threading within a workflow, is configured in the  Thread Buffer tab. For further information, see Thread Buffer Tab in Workflow Template.
