Host Get Screen

This Host Interface tool retrieves an entire screen and assigns each line as an element in a list of strings. Line 1 would be in element 0, line 2 in element 1, and so on. You can then use the list tools or an expression to pull values from the list. Any blank lines result in an empty string ("").

Inputs

Host Connection

The name of the connection created by the Host Connect tool.

Outputs

Result List

The list of string containing the list.

Exit Paths

Success

This step takes the Success exit path if the lines of the screen are successfully written to the list of string.

Failure

This step takes the Failure exit path if the host connection is invalid, or becomes invalid during the search. This occurs if the mainframe disconnects for some reason.
