4.3 Driver Configuration Files Naming Convention

The driver configuration file naming convention is:

<base name>[-<type>]-IDM<min. engine version>-V<config version>.xml

  • Base Name: The name of the connected system or service the driver provides. For example, Active Directory or Delimited Text.

  • Type: An additional descriptor for the driver configuration file. If there are multiple configuration files, the type distinguishes among the different files.

  • Minimum Engine Version: Lists the minimum engine version that the driver can run against. The elements to date are:

    • IDM2_0_0

    • IDM2_0_1

    • IDM2_0_2

    • IDM3_0_0

    • IDM3_0_1

    • IDM3_5_0

    • IDM3_5_1

    • IDM3_6_0

  • Configuration Version: Specifies the particular driver configuration file version. It is a number that is incriminated with each release of a new driver configuration file.

    • V1

    • V2

    • V11

    • V23

For example:

ActiveDirectory-IDM3_6_0-V4.xml
DelimitedText-CSVSample-IDM3_6_0-V2.xml
