Running server-side scripts
You can create scheduled tasks to run:
1 system-level scripts—for example, Windows batch, Perl, VBScript, and AppleScript
1 FileMaker scripts in databases hosted by FileMaker Server
1 script sequences that combine a FileMaker script with an optional pre-processing system-level
script and an optional post-processing system-level script
To create a scheduled task for scripts, choose the Admin Console Schedules pane, click , and
choose Create a Schedule. Then, choose System-level script, FileMaker script, or Script
sequence. The Schedule assistant guides you through the rest of the process.
System-level scripts
Script files must be placed in the Scripts folder on the master machine in your FileMaker Server
deployment. To schedule a system-level script to run, start the Schedule assistant as described
above by choosing System-level Script. Next, select the script file you want to run.
System-level scripts can perform whatever tasks you need to perform at the operating system
level on the master machine. For more information, see the documentation for the scripting
language you want to use.
See FileMaker Server Help for more information about running system-level scripts as scheduled
tasks.
FileMaker scripts
To schedule a FileMaker script to run, start the Schedule assistant as described above by
choosing FileMaker script. Next, select the database that contains the script you want to run, then
the script.
FileMaker scripts can do simple tasks or complex tasks. For example, you can write a FileMaker
script to remove duplicate records or to validate the format of phone numbers. You can schedule
these scripts to run during off hours, perhaps before a daily backup.
