Fetching a zipped CSV file from an ftp site
+1- Contributor
How can I read a zipped CSV file from a FTP site, extract it and save it. Nothing I have tried seems to work. Has anyone done it successfully? Would need to do it on the both FME server and desktop. I would be thankful for any input.
Hi Jan,
this way works for reading a zipped shape file from an ftp server:
Have you tried the same thing for your csv file?
Should be the same for both FME Desktop and Server.

+2If you mean read the CSV with FME, what David says is valid for FME 2013, if not I think you'd need some Python and David is probably the right guy here too! ;-)
Does the ftp have open access or does it need user/password to logon? If so I think you'll have to put the credentials in the ftp url.
