Can an external application trigger a TI process?

Hi,

I have a TI process that exports a file and then triggers an external shell script via ExecuteCommand in the Epilog. That shell script then imports the data in the exported file into another DB.

If we turn the table, i.e. an external application exports a file and wants to trigger a TI process automatically so that the data in the exported file can then be imported into TM1. Is this possible? Tm1 Top does not seem to be the tool for this.

Please advise. Thanks!

No, but this does.
