To add a bot to the configuration, either drag it from the list of
available bots on the left to the desired place into the graph, or -
alternatively - click "Add Bot", select a destination position in the
graph and then on the left the bot you want to add.

In any way, you'll get an interface to configure the parameters. You get
the same interface when you edit an existing bot (select the bot and
click "Edit Bot", or double-click the bot).

Look at the section "runtime". As "path" enter the directory where the
bot should expect the files. "postfix" is the file ending (could also be
an empty string/null). That's the bare minimum. "rate_limit" is the time
in seconds, the bot is sleeping between the runs, adjust it to your
needs. "delete_file" determines if the file should be deleted after it
has been picked by.

The documentation on this bot can be found here:

best regards
Sebastian
