File Management Connector

The File Management Connector reads and modifies file system structures and file system metadata available on the system it runs on. More specifically, you can create, find, and delete files and directories.

This connector can iterate over a directory structure starting from a user-defined location and return the discovered files (directories). Furthermore, it is able to locate, rename, and delete files (and directories) and move or copy them to other locations on the file system. It can also be used to create empty files and directories.

This connector does not operate on the actual contents of files. You can use the File Connector to couple it with a connector driven loop component and create an AssemblyLine that reads the content of all files (or subset from a specific type, say IdMLs) from a provided folder and its subfolders.
