Supported IM Formats

IMFrontEnd.exe supports these dump file formats:

Actiance (previously FaceTime)

A proprietary XML format for Actiance IM data.

CA DataMinder requires Actiance version 3 dump files. These XML dump files start with a <interactionV3> node.

Note: Despite the name change from FaceTime to Actiance, the corresponding IM Import data source parameter is still DirFaceTime.

DirIBXML

A proprietary XML format for Instant Bloomberg messages.

FactSet 1.1

A proprietary XML format for FactSet IM data.

IMlogic

A proprietary XML format for IMlogic instant messaging data. The corresponding data source parameter is DirIMLogic.

Note: You must first configure IM Manager to convert IMlogic dump files into a format supported by IMFrontEnd.exe.
