Adobe Campaign Standard: File path has a folder named with current date in file transfer activity

[NavinK7]

Dear Community Members,

I need to download a file into ACS to create an audience from an SFTP server. The file is placed in the  filepath where a folder is named with current date(yyyymmdd).

Example: xyz/20250326/sampleFile.csv

What is the best way to have that folder dynamically in the filepath? 

Your suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

@NavinK7 I would suggest changing the folder structure and file name, so that file transfer activity will accept wildcards.

Example: xyz/20250326_sampleFile.csv -> xyz/*_sampleFile.csv

This will allow to specify wildcards in the file transfer activity.Additionally, this will facilitate the efficient cleanup of the files.
