Overview
The Initialization Policy determines how the job will behave the first time it executes.
| Option | Behavior |
|---|---|
| "on_initialize": "none" | Nothing is done prior to the first job execution. (This is the default.) |
| "on_initialize": "purge_destination" | All files and folders in the destination path of the job are deleted prior to starting the file transfer. |
