Generate File

Business Background

Generate files to store data that can be sent via email or exchanged using external cloud storage services.

Titan Solution

With Titan Flow, you can generate a file, such as CSV or TXT, that suits your unique business needs. For instance, you can disable the integration and account logging in Titan and then use the Generate File functionality to audit and monitor transactions together with the Titan Web Store Error Messages in Variables functionality. You can generate a JSON file for a transaction and upload it to an external cloud storage location.
