Chapter 4 Configuring System Preferences 51
There are two types of automations you can configure with the Automation pane’s
Automation Setup Assistant: a file system watcher that responds to any file changes
to a specified location and a metadata subscription that responds to specific
metadata changes.
In each case, the response of the watcher or subscription can be to copy a file to
another location, send an email to specified addresses, or archive a file.
