Hi Ankur, Please clarify on the below. 1.At 3:10 can we use the option copy file as download. 2.At 4:08 in target window I can see the element "processing option" and how can we use that option.

[@TechSupper]

Copy file option is not available. I couldn't understand 2nd question. Please elaborate.

Thanks Ankur for this informative video. Kindly clarify on below 1) Can we traverse to staging folder temp and tempzip somehow? 2) In Download file, what is significance of giving directory and file name when we will map it in mapper.

[@TechSupper]

Hi Bhushan, 1) You can traverse files not folder 2) Just to give dynamic file name and directory from where the file will be picked up to download at staging location. Regards, Ankur

Heyy, Error Summary: Zipping of the folder failed because /temp does not exist why I am getting this error?

[@TechSupper]

Please check if you have given the correct folder /temp while creating the files. Please subscribe to my channel if not subscribed yet.

[@TechSupper]

Yes, you can for sure.

[@TechSupper]

I couldn't understand your query? can you please explain your requirement?

[@danielvelazco1714]

how can I create a gzip file? Is that possible?

[@TechSupper]

same as zip, change the extension.

[@danielvelazco1714]

​@@TechSupper already did. The problem is that the compressed file in its properties still retains the .zip property. Doesn't show up as gzip
