Re: IFS files transfer with iACS

have a look here for the IFS plugin section 9.1.33
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-i-access-acs-getting-started <https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-i-access-acs-getting-started>

Integrated File System provides an interface for browsing the Integrated File System of your IBM i and working with objects in the Integrated File System in the following ways:
Copy objects between your client system and your IBM i
Copy objects within the Integrated File System on an IBM i or to the Integrated File System on another IBM i
Send objects to another IBM i (or to several)
Create new folders (directories, libraries, and folders)
Delete objects
Rename objects
View properties of objects
See section 9.12 Integrated File System (IFS) <https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-i-access-acs-getting-started#9.12> for requirements and limitations when using this plug-in.

I have been looking around the documentation of iACS related to automating
file transfers using a script (a .cmd file), to run every day automatically
at 7am and download files to a PC folder.

It looks like it only support dttx and dtfx files and in turn these refer
to the LIBRARY/FILE(MEMBER) format.

I thought iACS allowed to download IFS files, the GUI does it, but I need a
command-line, automated process.

Have I not looked for it very well, or this option simply is not possible?

Thanks in advance for your help.
