[Feature Reader] error opening path reader on URL


Best answer by takashi

Hi @sobanmughal, I don't think the PATH reader supports reading properties of the files saved in a Web server disk system. If you have privilege to access the directory with FTP protocol, you can create a Python script with the "ftplib" module to retrieve file properties in the directory. See here to learn about the module: ftplib -- FTP protocol client, Python Documentation

I am trying to use Feature Reader to extract file properties like path_modified_date for a file store on http folder e.g http://xyz.net/abc.csv

 

I am getting the following error.

 

"Opening the PATH Reader on folder http://xyz.net/. Could not find folder"
