You set the options you want using profiles that you set up in the AdminUI. Once the profiles are set you can point to them when you set up your watched folder. The profiles are for Security, PDF Settings etc.

You would have to creat einput variables for each of the profiles that you want to use. Then when you click on th einvoke operation in the Watched Folder setup all input variable names will appear in th einterface. You can assign the value of the profile at that time.

I have never seen anyone asking for a screen shot in answer before.

This seems to be asking someone to go to a lot of trouble. Isn't the

information in the manual?

Is available in the manual. But it is not clearly mentioned in the "input parameter mapping" information. I think so in that action only specify the joboption. That is the reason am asking. Kindly help me to sort out the problem.

It is normal to ask for information to clarify the manual, or to ask

for step by step instructions. It is most unusual, almost unique in my

experience of these forums, to ask someone to go to all of the trouble

of creating screen shots, loading them to their own server, and

linking to them for a reply. I point this out because such an unusual

request may mean you are less likely to get the help you need.

The input paramater mappings are going to be based on how you define your process. In your process if you have defined an input variable it will be exposed in the input parameter mappings when you create the end point. This allows you to map the input data to data that is supplied by your end point.
