- The Profile requires a profile_id which is used to call the profile when the transfer is called from the command line.
- Each Profile element is required to have an Operation element.
Note that the Operation specified defines subsequent descencent descendant elements. For example, a Rename operation will require a different descendants to a Move operation. - In the example, a Copy operation is specified, which, in turn, requires that CopySource and CopyTarget elements are set.
- The CopySource element has two child elements:
- a CopySourceFragmentRef element, which is required. This element in turn requires an FTPFragmentRef element, which contains the reference specifying the protocol fragment element. The protocol fragment then specifies the transfer connection parameters such as authentication, protocol, etc.
- Note that the FragmentRef element (FTPFragmentRef), which is used to specify the fragment element, is protocol-specific. This allows optional pre- and post-processing child elements - which are not shown in the diagram - to be added to the profile as child elements of the FTPFragmentRef element. Such elements are protocol-specific.
- a SourceFileOptions element which is also required - together with the Selection element - can be optionally and is used to specify a range of parameters related to aspects of file selection.
- a CopySourceFragmentRef element, which is required. This element in turn requires an FTPFragmentRef element, which contains the reference specifying the protocol fragment element. The protocol fragment then specifies the transfer connection parameters such as authentication, protocol, etc.
- The CopyTarget element does not need a corresponding FTPFragmentRef child element as the target is the local file system. However, the LocalTarget element must be specified.
- The Directory element is used to specify a target directory if a directory other than the user's root directory is required.

A Profile is specified by its profile_id attribute, which is used to call the profile when the transfer is called from the command line.
An example showing the JADE command line call syntax can be seen in the Configuring and Running File Transfers article.
