Currently, I am trying to retrieve a file from a SFTP. The only way I can grab a unique file is by the “date modified” of the file. When I use the “File Meta Info” on local files, i have no issue. When I use “File Meta Info” after “List Remote Files” all i get are the red question marks since the file path can not resolve.
If i download the files local, then the date modified will change.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I solved this issue by extracting the date out of the file name, then doing a datetime difference to find the correct value. From there i took that file name and created the file path to it and passed that into the Download node.
No ideas, but I can confirm that the “File Meta Info” doesn’t seem to work when using the FTP connection as well (as opposed to SFTP described in previous post).
EDIT: I guess this kind of makes sense since there is no FTP or SFTP connector that feeds into this node. I think what we are looking for is a “Remote File Meta Info” node – which as of today doesn’t exist. So I think we are out of luck here.
