3658540 - Datasphere - SFTP as source of flow - use of dynamic file names

You are creating a flow (Data Flow or Replication Flow) in SAP Datasphere.

The source of the flow is an SFTP server.

Relevant pages:
Prepare Connectivity for Generic SFTP
Generic SFTP Connections

You have to select what file from the SFTP server you want to load using the flow.

The challenge is that your SFTP server generates a new file everyday with a different name each time.
eg: day1.CSV, day2.CSV

You want the flow to load a file with a different name each time, without having to adjust the design of the flow.

Refer to documentation page Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) Sources for Replication Flows
