 Performing Integration - Command Line - Click here to expand...

TFS Integration can be run using command line switches via the Run command or an application shortcut. Command line switches do not require the software to be opened and thus can be used in conjunction with Windows Scheduled Task (please refer to the Microsoft Windows or Microsoft Server product documentation).

To perform integration using command line switches, an integration profile must already have been created and the profile number, available from the Profiles screen, must be noted down.


Command line switches can only be used to perform one integration profile at a time.
