Build worklist file for specific machine

Hello everyone !

Regarding the creation of worklist file, can you tell me if I understood the documentation?
Apparently, Orthanc looks at all .wl files and uses them regardless of their name. This allows to pass as many files as you want, but how to specify that such file is for such machine? Should I use the "ScheduledStationAETitle" tag in the worklist file and indicate the name that has been entered in the configuration file orthanc.json, section "DicomModalities"?

Thank you for your reply, and thanks again for Orthanc !

Hi Bertrand,

Indeed, if, when generating your .wl files, you set ScheduledStationAETitle to the AET of the targeted station AND if that station includes its AET in its C-Find (which is not always the case), Orthanc will only return the wl for this station.

Note that you can configure Orthanc to add “ScheduledStationAETitle=CallingAET” to the incodming C-Find by using the FilterIssuerAET option
or you can also use the IncomingWorklistRequestFilter callback to i.e: remove the “SchedulateStationAETitle” from an incoming C-Find request.
