Remote Files

The Remote File variable refers to files on a remote system such as an FTP, FTPS, SFTP or Informatica HTTPS Server. The Remote File contains information about the file like name, extension and size. The path is relative to the remote system (for example, /home/user/myfile.txt).

Each Remote File variable contains the following attributes:

Attribute Name	Description
name	The name of the file, including the extension if one exists. If the Remote File's path is /orders/company/20150101.txt, then the value of this attribute would be 20150101.txt
extension	The extension of the file if one exists. If the Remote File variable is a directory, then the value of this attribute will be an empty string. If the Remote File variable is a data file and the file has an extension, the extension will be returned. If the file does not have any extension, an empty string is returned.
lastModifiedDate	The last modified date and time of the file in ISO format, yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS. Refer to the date and time format symbols for more information. This attribute may only exist when using the Create a File List sub-task.
lastModifiedMillis	The last modification date and time of the file in milliseconds since the Unix timestamp (January 1, 1970). This attribute may only exist when using the Create a File List sub-task.
size	The size of the file in bytes, which is a whole number. This attribute may only exist when using the Create a File List sub-task.
path	The relative path of the file. For example, /home/user/myfile.txt.
nameWithoutExtension	The name of the file excluding the extension.
