Adobe Classic SFTP Activity

Hi Team, 

 

When i transfer (either download or upload) the files from 3rd party server to Adobe app server folders, we see that files gets appended with the timestamp at the end of the file. 

ex :- Starting transfer of 'sftp://sftp.test.com:portnumber//ftp/foldername/filename.csv' to 'filename_202001...a.csv'

But i dont want the file name to be changed or altered by including the timestamps to it. 

 

Please let me know if there is a way to restrict the suffix of timestamp to the file names. 

 

Thanks,
Adithya

Hi,

 

The only fix we found was to add a Javascript activity after the SFTP activity, with the below code:

 

var f = new File(vars.filename); // vars.filename will be automatically set by the previous SFTP activity logInfo('Old path:', f.fullName); // log full path var newPath = f.path + f.name.replace(/_\d{14}[a-z]+(\.\w+)$/, '$1'); // generate new path by replacing "{an underscore}{14 digits}{a few lowercase letters}" by nothing logInfo('New path:', newPath); f.renameTo(newPath); // move file to the new path vars.filename = newPath; // set ACC standard filename convention to the new name

 

This is not elegant but it works well. You may encapsulate it into a function in a Javascript code and call it from within your workflow.
