Microsoft access db - Remote location configuration - KNIME Business hub

Hello @narayanan ,

For security reasons, in KNIME Business Hub we cannot allow access to local file system.

However, there are different alternatives to achieve the same functionalities:

  • If you want to keep the files locally (on Windows) you can use SMB Connector to access them.
  • Depending on the files, if it makes sense you can also store them inside KNIME Business Hub.
  • Last but not least, you can put these files in the Cloud (e.g. SharePoint) and access them from your workflows.

It may also be useful to look at this thread, where options 2 and 3 are explained in more detail.

I hope it helps!
