FTP wildcard filename | Community

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.

Hi @alexf

Did you see these links bellow:

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

Thanks,
