IPD FTP node File name destination

Good morning, How to use the correct string on Destination file name?

On the Destination file section of the FTP node, we used the Configuration name and was able to successfully transferr the file as per log. However, we have an issue on how to properly transfer the file to the FTP subfolders as seen on FileZilla (an FTP software). It is currently transferring to the user's root directory. The FTP server is in windows and the following destination variable is transferring to the user's folder "InterfaceDesigner\Employee.csv". Do we need to fully qualify "C:inetpu..."? How do we "string it"?

Thanks

Jude

I ended up using a syscmd node to execute a bat file that FTP's the file. I can specify the folder in that. Is it possible to change the root directory for the user?

I think we can but I can't seem figure the right string.

If you are talking about changing the root directory I would think you would have to have the admin for the FTP server change it. Of course that would change it for everyone logging in with that account. If you are a windows shop your best bet would be to use a bat file to transmit the file. You could then control the directory that it goes into. This of course would require some additional configuration so that the bat file would have access to the file you are sending. Not knowing how you are set up I can't give you a more precise answer.

This exact string worked, typed directly on File name: //Reports/Lawson_Reports/Employee.csv
