Uploading the results

User has an option to preview the harvested data before it is sent to the server and then decide whether the data should be uploaded. The harvested data that is being uploaded to the server is cleaned to make it GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliant.

BigFix Archive Manager is used to upload the output compressed file to the server.

All files copied or created are deleted from the computer after the compressed file has been successfully uploaded to FTP server. This also applies to old Harvesting data.
