XML Subscription

txjustin

Testing out a XML subscription.  Launching ACT prompts if I would like to import but also says the file is outdated.  If I opt to import, it works as expected.  I'm storing the file on B2, and initially thought perhaps it cleared the create or modified date but that does not seem to be the case.  What is the outdated message referring to ?  I see the below in the log, and my url uses a fileid rather than pointing to a direct file (ie, .../mytriggers.xml) 

System.ArgumentException: The path is not of a legal form.

If the web server does not return a Last-Modified HTTP header, then ACT will have nothing to go off of and assume that it needs to update it to be safe.

Take this for example...

Notice the "Last updated" line when Query URL is used.  If it doesn't show, the server is not sending the header.
