Hi Charlie,

I’ve tried Directory Browser snap to fetch files. When I hook pipelineExecute Snap I am getting the error.

Failure: Pipeline did not complete successfully, Reason: Snap errors: {ruuid=830fa0d3-2253-40b5-b419-2a4fd53dfa97, reason=Value referenced in the sub-expression ‘$Path’ is null, label=File Reader, resolution=Please check expression syntax and data types.}, Resolution: Fix the child pipeline errors and try again

I might be giving the wrong expression in the parameter section. Can you please look into pipeline Execute and File reader snap screenshots and suggest the correction.

Attached screenshots.

Thanks,
Amar

Also, the Pipeline Parameters section doesn’t look right to me. Typically, the Parameter Name won’t be prefixed with a ‘$’ (although yours might). As well, the Parameter Value should be enabled for expressions by toggling the “=” button.
