Hi All,

Based on a folder name i want to move files from A to B in FME

So for example:

- zip file is received via httpCaller and saved to a default location

- within that downloaded zip file, i want to extract one folder & its contents (probably using systemCaller)

- The internal folder will have 1 of 5 possible names(lets say finance, sales, IT, etc)

- Its destination will depend on the the folder name

I dont think theres a transformer for this, to check if a file exists?

So i'm guessing it would be a python script of sorts to check if each of the file names exist, set an attribute based off of that result, then filter. but im useless at python, its on my 'to learn' list. Any help is appreciated!

There's a custom transformer on the hub called FileExistenceChecker
