File Connector Process Objects Overview

The following process objects are used with the File Connector:

DelimitedContent. Generated from a parsed file when you use built-in process objects. In this case, Field, Header, and Record process objects are also created.

<EventSource>Content (a collection of records and related information) and <EventSource>Record (a single row). Generated from a parsed file when you use custom objects.

FileInformation. File metadata generated for each file read by an event source.

FileWriteTask. Represents a request to a File Writer (Event Target) service.

SerializeToDelimitedContentTask. Represents a request to a Delimited Content Writer (Event Target) service.

SerializeToDelimitedContentResult. Returned as a response from a Delimited Content Writer service.

When you define a process that uses the File connection, you can work with these process objects.

In addition, these process objects represent the content of files handled by the File Connector:

PlainFileContent. Content of a plain text or binary file.

ParsedFileContent. Content of a file represented as XML or JSON in a list of process objects (or a single object).

AttachmentFileContent. Content of a file provided as an attachment.
