Re: Passing ">" in a batch command

[Michael Metcalf]

Anyone:

Building a batch script to write a ton user’s email signature’s to individual files… Dito gam doesn’t seem to accept the “>" command from the batch command but takes its just fine if I do it individually from the shell..

A line in the batch looks like this:
gam user test.user show signature > Desktop/B-300/Signature_test_user.html

This seems to work fine in the shell but not in the batch.

Please advise!!

I assume you've automated the naming format?

So the two first lines are something like this

gam user test.user1 show signature > Desktop/B-300/Signature_test_user1.html

gam user test.user2 show signature > Desktop/B-300/Signature_test_user2.html

So the target files are unique. If not, you will only ever get one signature into that file; the last one, since > overwrites previous content.

Have you tried using a CSV instead of a batch file?

Also, tried exporting all users to a single file and then splitting the content of that file instead?

gam all users show signature > Path/to/your/file.html
