Hi Roshan! Its me again hehe, do you know if a file listener can access a path which is not exactly where the iics agent is intalled, for my case, it is located in the network of the customer, they drop the file in the network, but we have connections created in iics which access those networks to read a lot of files. But in the file liestener I did not see option to use those connections

Very helpful ur videos

[@ETLSTATION]

thak you mahender for continuous support , keep watching

Roshan I had a requirement to archive a file on blob storage from iics after i completely load data to redshift. If there is a way that can be done with a mass injection and file listener or other mechanism please let me know. Thanks

How can i make time out 0 or close to 0 because im just using file listener to check if i have a file in a folder or no and i want quick respond because 1 min is slow. Thank you in advance.

Hi Roshan nice videos... While I created the 2nd file listener, it didn't wait for the file to be pasted in the folder, it directly went successful. Why so?

[@ETLSTATION]

i had explained right that default is 5 minutes , you need to modify default in timer properties , after 5 minutes it simply completes

[@ETLSTATION]

you did not see full video i guess, its discussed at around 16 minutes onwards

Bro how to fail the file listener if file is not found ..

[@JakupHAlili-h2b]

@@sagarsawant3131 just make a decision where you count how many files has file listener read, if its 0 then fail it.

i am trying to run file watch with the file already there but it is not working. but if i place after it starts it works, any idea how to achieve my solution in IICS?

[@ETLSTATION]

this is need to see , i dont think it will not work , as long as file is there it should work even if file watcher was started later .

[@yashchheda935]

Even I faced the same..I think its the functionality of IICS we have to live with...if file already exists when we configure the File Listener, it doesnt start! It works when file actually arrives on the path.

hi, where will saved IICS code(after mapping completed)

[@ETLSTATION]

i did not get your question. if you are asking which folder your mapping are being saved after creation then answer is default folder ( if you did not create any folder ). if you are asking where the metadata of mapping getting stored for iics then its on informatica vendor metadata repository, they maintain it

[@kumar45512]

Bro first tell the defintion then properties and how it work. it helps a loat

[@KumarAnil-fx6lq]

[@ETLSTATION]

its licensed software in iics . our free trial version does not have it . you can read about it in below link knowledge.informatica.com/s/article/000080606?language=en_US#:~:text=Yes%2C%20in%20Informatica%20Intelligent%20Cloud,Control%20is%20a%20licensed%20feature.
