Hi, are there any way to configure the sender file adapter to delete and not pick up empty files or files with, say, max. 4 bytes of size?

Thanks!

hi Rune,

if the file is <b>empty</b> it will be deleted

in standard (with the file adapter)

no need to do anything

and it will not be processed by the XI

if you want to check for <b>small files </b>you can use this approach:

Hi

If the file naming conventions are different for the file containing data and zero byte file then you can use expressions to block the zero byte file from being picked up.
