Hi @jefrii,

File transfer activity does not provide inbuilt decryption or decompression. These are provided in the data loading (file) activity.

It offers by default one operation, either decompression or decryption, in a single step. You can fall back to the old way of preprocessing where you can write a script to decompress and decrypt simultaneously. This can be done by adding the option variable "XtkSecurity_Disable_Preproc" as integer type and setting the value to 1. It is however not recommended as it poses a security risk.


Alternatively, you can run a command to decrypt the file in a js activity first, and then decompress the file using the OOTB feature from the data loading activity.

 

Let me know if that works.

@jefrii,

for 1 and 2, there is no code to be written. That all happens singularly in the data loading activity.

For doing both in the same activity, you need to enable the option I mentioned earlier and write a script, basically the decrypt and decompress commands in sequence (pipe separated most likely).
