File Actions - Get Version Information

[wtmullican]

How does the File Actions - Get Version Information work?  When I double click on the action I get the follow message:

ERROR: Vendor Action doesn't exist
The Vendor Action for this action does not exist.

Thanks,

Hi Terry,

How does the File Actions - Get Version Information work?  When I double click on the action I get the follow message:

ERROR: Vendor Action doesn't exist
The Vendor Action for this action does not exist.

Thanks for asking - I'm afraid this action is not done yet.  Unfortunately I had left some unfinished actions in there:(  It is very close to the top of the list of new actions for the next release. 

Best regards,

No problem, I just got excited when we seen it.  I want to use it for pushing out testing versions.  Will there be anyway to use the Create Folder with File Version to create a folder like: "Product 7.14.1.1297" ?

If so...waaahooo!

Also, PLEASE remember...there are 2 version on a file...file version and product version.  It would be nice to be able to access both...

PS Andy said you could handle getting this done!

Sorry for the late reply - apparently my notification email for this message got eaten by the spam filter or something!

You can use the "Create Folders" to create any kind of folders, BUT:  I found out recently that the api I'm using does NOT allow using periods in version names.  I changed my script to use underscore which works fine.

Also, PLEASE remember...there are 2 version on a file...file version and product version.  It would be nice to be able to access both...

Yes indeed;)  It will be able to pick up any version label from the resource, either by picking one of the standard ones, or by entering the label name.  For example I have a template in my Utilities that can add the compile date/time to the version resources and in that case you would need to enter the label since it's not a standard version label. 

Best regards,
