I was focusing on to solve the other bits and took time to come to you. I think I jump too much. Let me take one at a time. For now, I will focus on a single file. I have the below xml file.</P><PRE>&lt;configuration verbose="false" debugMode="false"&gt; &lt;dataFlows&gt; &lt;dataFlow configurationId="7c888be1-04ac-11e7-8ab3-3c970ee9aa0b" name="dept" enabled="true"&gt; &lt;properties&gt; &lt;property name="country" value="it" /&gt; &lt;property name="datasource" value="dept" /&gt; &lt;/properties&gt; &lt;from&gt; &lt;filePattern&gt;department_*.csv.gz&lt;/filePattern&gt; &lt;/from&gt; &lt;to&gt; &lt;path&gt;/var/tmp/${country}/${datasource}/csv&lt;/path&gt; &lt;/to&gt; &lt;/dataFlow&gt; &lt;/dataFlows&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; </PRE><P>When I try to access path from LookupAttribute, putFile is reading the path as /var/tmp/${country}/${datasource}/csv instead of /var/tmp/it/dept/csv. Do you know the easy way to solve this before I ask further support? Many thanks.</P> Thu, 22 Jun 2017 21:06:44 GMT pchallauk 2017-06-22T21:06:44Z
