Hello. Does anyone know a solution on how to grab a file from FTP using wildcard along the lines of filename*.txt

We receive a daily file drop to our FTP with a timestamp attached to the end of the filename. It would be helpful if we can set up a workspace that grabs the file using partial filename only. This wildcard works for the folders on a local machines, but does not work for us on an FTP.

 

Any helps will be greatly appreciated.

How is the structure from your FTP? Could you send the prints of your files inside FTP to investigate the filename?

 

Thanks,

Danilo
