If PI is middleware you can do easily. By doing one of these ways

1) File adapter and choosing file content conversion as message protocol convert txt file to xml file and pass it to EP as XML. Basically using file (fcc) to file (xml).

2) FIle adapter on the sender side to convert txt to xml and use HTTP protocol on the reciver side to post data to EP.

Hi Ram Vijay,

You can look for one of the work around.

Take the text file from source and put it on the application server of PI. Then map this drive of pi with the drive of portal.

This can be done if the EP and PI are both in the same network.

You can use the File Content Conversion functionality.

Follow this wiki for instructions:

The architecture, can be something like this:

FILE ADAPTER --> PI / FileContentConversion --> SOAP/HTTP

if you have PI midleware in your landscape then use filoe adapter in sender side to conver flat file in to XML and use Web service(SOAP) communictaion to update data in EP.
