# ImportFile Task Parameters

The parameters in this section customize the `ImportFile` task.

This task imports a file and adds its content to the document being processed. CFS does not extract sub files from the file.

You can configure this task as a Pre or Post task.

To configure the task, use the `Pre` or `Post` parameter to specify the name of a document field that contains the path or a URL to the file to import:

    [ImportTasks]
    Post0=ImportFile:field_containing_file_path_or_url

Alternatively, specify the name of a section in the configuration file that contains the settings for the task:

    [ImportTasks]
    Post0=ImportFile:MySettings

    [MySettings]
    FieldName=field_containing_file_path_or_url
    ProxyHost=10.0.0.1
    ProxyPort=8080
    SSLMethod=TLSV1
