I am getting error while configuring the variable node(using path) with tika parser to get the pdf files inside SharePoint folder.

Hi @pkoteswararao ,

Welcome to the Forum.

Currently it is not possible to add a filesystem connection to the Tika Parser node. But, we have feature request (AP-15946) for this. I will add a +1 from you on it, but I can not guarantee when this feature will be available, unfortunately.

For now as a workaround you could transfer the files locally as described here:

How to access pdf files from Microsoft Sharepoint using tika parser or pdf parser

Hi @SABAREESHS37, currently, the Tika Parser does not support adding filesystem connections. Hence, it is limited to loading local files. We do plan on updating the node in an upcoming version, though I can’t say when this will occur. For now, I recommend @AnotherFraudUser’s approach. In the Transfer Files you can specify to store the file relative to the current server or workflow, so that you don’t need to change the configuration between your local pc and the server. Kind regards Marvin

Best,
