Get out of "Add Data Source" using keyboard

Autopsy Help
1

Hi,

Im currently automating the creation and ingest of new cases.
I dont want to use mouse, because of different screen resolutions and screen zoom.
My problem is that when I’m at the page “Add Data Source” → “Configure Ingest Modules” I cannot get out using the keyboard.

Add Data To Source

I have a loop that goes like this:

Loop 17 times{
    Press TAB
    CTRL+C // Gives me example: false	Recent Activity
    "Do some if false bla bla, if true bla bla"
}

After the loop I want to press “Next”. This is where the problem appears because I cannot use the keyboard to get to it. Pressing ENTER also doesnt work.

Any suggestions?

The ingest and analysis of data sources has already been implemented, at least for multi-user cases. To obtain the “auto ingest” feature, build and plug in the Experimental NBM. The auto ingest system requires set up of the same centralized services needed for multi-user cases: PostgreSQL, Solr and ActiveMQ. There is an options panel for setting up auto ingest, e.g., input (data sources) directory, output (cases) directory, etc. Data sources are identified by manifest files. All of this is documented.

There is also support for doing ingest using command line parameters.
