Extract text from Siebel configuration files (IFB)
To convert IFB configuration files to another format, you need Siebel CRM or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Interface Batch Script" file type, you need software like Siebel CRM or a similar tool.
The .IFB file extension represents two distinct text-based formats used in enterprise environments. The most common technical use is the Oracle Siebel Interface Configuration file, a critical ASCII script used by the Siebel Enterprise Integration Manager (EIM). These files define batch processes for importing, exporting, merging, or deleting data within Siebel CRM databases. Users often struggle here because the proprietary .ifb extension prevents the file from opening in standard text editors by default, despite being plain text. To view or audit these scripts, users typically convert or rename them to TXT, or convert them to PDF for immutable archival of database logic.
Alternatively, an .ifb file may be an iCalendar Free/Busy file, a subset of the standard ICS format defined by RFC 5545. These files specifically contain availability data (free/busy time slots) rather than full event details, and are generated by groupware like Microsoft Outlook. The main challenge users face is that modern calendar apps (like Google Calendar or Apple Calendar) often fail to recognize the .ifb extension automatically, or users need to extract the raw availability data for analysis. For these cases, converting to ICS ensures broad compatibility, while converting to CSV allows for time-slot analysis in Microsoft Excel.
Convert.Guru analyzes your IFB file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted PKG, JWS and JSP files.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our IFB converter.
