NiFi :Is it possible to collect file via remote directory (from Windows)?

avatar

NiFi installed in a linux (Ubuntu Server).

Is it possible to collect file from a remote directory (ex. windows)?

In our case, we're collecting data from different servers (SunOS, Win XP, unix, linux).

Hi,

One way might be to mount the windows shared folder on your Linux machine, then use the GetFiles processor and configure to look at the mounted path.
