handling dynamic source file names

[Former Member]

Hello,

File - RFC

if the name of the source file doesnt have a fixed name, if the name of source file varies in each input, then what should I specify in the "Filename" of the File adapter parameters?

Thanks

Nikhil.

Hi

you can put * in the file name field.

if there is some common name in all the name then you can put the common name with *.

Hi Nikhil,

Check your file names, there are any common portion in the file name. if you find any then you can set like ###.file extenison. ### - this is common portion of your file name. If the file names does not have any similarities with other, then *.file extension. in htis case the channel would pick the files which are having the file extenison as you mentioned in channel.

Hi,

If file follows a pattern then you can use the pattern, putting a "*" as wildcard.

If No pattern is being followd just try putiing "*", hope it works.

Just make sure that the folder has only the files related to the XI interface.
