Filter Fields
Each filter object must include values for "type", "pattern", and "rule". Filters are applied in order. Watch Folders
supports glob and Regex filters. The glob filter system is the same as Ascp; see Using Filters to Include and Exclude
Files on page 126.

Field Description Default
type The type of filter. Supported filters are GLOB and REGEX. N/A
pattern The filter pattern. N/A
rule The rule for the filter. Supported rules are INCLUDE and EXCLUDE.
Note: An include rule must be followed by at least one exclude rule,
otherwise all files are transferred because none are excluded. To
exclude all files that do not match the include rule, use /** for glob
or .* for Regex.
N/A
Packages Fields
Packages values are used to define an order for the transfer queue. For example, if file B depends on file A, file A
must be transferred before File B. Dependencies are defined by package files, where the package file contains the set
of files on which it depends. The package file (by default) is transferred after successfully transferring all the files
defined in the package file
