Dynamic username/password in PI FTP channel. If not FTP is it possible for any other adapter?

Hi All,

We're working on a requirement wherein client wants the same channel (FTP in our case) to be used to transfer the data. Our data is coming from different countries and for every country username/password combination is different.

Is there any way (e.g., variable substitution etc.) to dynamically set the username and password in the communication channel at the run time? If it is not possible for FTP adapter, is it possible for any other adapter?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Hari

Parties are just for that purpose, bullseye.

Another good ways: custom module development where all pairs (login : password) will be set, and for password asterisks hiding provided. And, of course, your own adapter

Another bad way: OS-specific scripts.

Hello Hari ,

Even if the user ID/password can be substituted at run time , how can you substitute the target directory.

and if target directory is same then what is the need of different passwords.

Further , you have to create multiple channels for each country and redirect traffic based upon receiver conditions using the same interface.

Thanks

Hi Hari,

As far as I know that is not possible with standard, you should consider to use a separate receiver channel for each country
