You can automate the check-in/check-out) process by calling the executable file CEVAULTMAIN.EXE, which is found in the BIN subdirectory of the workstation directory, for example C:\ELSAWSX1\BIN.

 

The CEVAULTMAIN.EXE file should be called with two parameters:

 

1.AUTO

2.A complete file name including search path for a Unicode text file containing the job to be processed

 

Each line of the text file should be formatted like this:

The first time you start the integration, you will be asked to enter the login information to Vault. It is thereby important that the account that is dedicated to the integration has administrator rights. The login information is saved in an encrypted file called CRYPTLOG.DAT located in the workstation directory to be used the next time you use the integration.
