Trigger Scheduled Business Importer process via CMD

[jcolemn3]

Is there a way to trigger a scheduled Business Importer Via CMD? I have a use-case where I need to trigger a FlexNet Beacon Business Importer on a scheduled time that is not supported by the Flexnet Beacon. I need to run the scheduled process 3 times per day at specific times. Is there any way to trigger a scheduled business importer process via cmd or powershell?

Execute a command like the following on your beacon (using the appropriate name for the import you want to execute):

"C:\Program Files\Flexera Software\Inventory Beacon\DotNet\bin\FlxBizAdapterImporter.exe" --name "Your import name"

See the following documentation page for more details: https://docs.flexera.com/fnms/EN/BusnAdap/index.html#mgsbi/reference/FlxBizAdapterImporter.html
