SFTP File Read from client source

Howdy All!
I am trying to read SFTP files using the Directory browser snap. Can someone guide me what should be filled out in the filefilter tab. I don’t have anything to filter. Files are in .csv format
If that snap is incorrect, what should be the correct snap.

Thanks

  • The Directory Browser Snap is used to list attributes like Name, Type, Size for files matching the filter. To match all the files in the directory, use * as the filter. Note that it doesn’t read the contents of the files, only the attributes.

    To read the contents of a file, which seems like what you’re looking for instead, use either the File Reader or the Multi File Reader Snap.
