In the output filename format field, variables listed below can be used. Beside variables, any characters can be used as static text, except these:

<>:"\|/?*$

Available variables:

${dataid} - this string identifies a file processing and can be used to retrieve results of processings
${datetime} - date and time at the time of sanitization
${original.basename} - name of the file to be sanitized, without file extension
${original.extension} - extension of the file to be sanitized
${converted.extension} - extension based on the target file type

Example usage

${original.basename|long}_sanitized_${dataid}.${converted.extension}

Example output:

testfile_sanitized_db3761f43e4545ab886f5930dbb037f3.pdf

Variables

Data ID

${dataid}

The result is the dataid of the sanitized file.

Original filename

${original.basename}
${original.basename|<attribute>}

Attribute	Description
short (default)	filename until the first '.', ie. archive.tar.gz
long	filename until the last '.', ie. archive.tar.gz

Original file extension

${original.extension}
${original.extension|<attribute>}

Attribute	Description
short (default)	extension from the last '.', ie. archive.tar.gz
long	extension from the first '.', ie. archive.tar.gz

Converted file extension

${converted.extension}

The result is the selected target extension used for sanitization.

Date and time

${datetime}
${datetime|epoch}
${datetime|<format>}

Without any format string, the default format is 'yyyy_MM_dd-hh_mm'. With epoch format the result will be the number of seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), Thursday, 1 January 1970, minus the number of leap seconds that have taken place since then. When giving custom format, the '.', '_' and '-' characters also can be used.

Expression	Output
d	the day as number without a leading zero (1 to 31)
dd	the day as number with a leading zero (01 to 31)
ddd	the abbreviated localized day name (e.g. 'Mon' to 'Sun'). Uses the system locale to localize the name.
dddd	the long localized day name (e.g. 'Monday' to 'Sunday'). Uses the system locale to localize the name.
M	the month as number without a leading zero (1-12)
MM	the month as number with a leading zero (01-12)
MMM	the abbreviated localized month name (e.g. 'Jan' to 'Dec'). Uses the system locale to localize the name.
MMMM	the long localized month name (e.g. 'January' to 'December'). Uses the system locale to localize the name.
yy	the year as two digit number (00-99)
yyyy	the year as four digit number

These expressions may be used for the time:

Expression	Output
h	the hour without a leading zero (0 to 23 or 1 to 12 if AM/PM display)
hh	the hour with a leading zero (00 to 23 or 01 to 12 if AM/PM display)
H	the hour without a leading zero (0 to 23, even with AM/PM display)
HH	the hour with a leading zero (00 to 23, even with AM/PM display)
m	the minute without a leading zero (0 to 59)
mm	the minute with a leading zero (00 to 59)
s	the second without a leading zero (0 to 59)
ss	the second with a leading zero (00 to 59)
z	the milliseconds without leading zeroes (0 to 999)
zzz	the milliseconds with leading zeroes (000 to 999)
AP or A	use AM/PM display. A/AP will be replaced by either "AM" or "PM".
ap or a	use am/pm display. a/ap will be replaced by either "am" or "pm".
t	the timezone (for example "CEST")
