read from ftp

Hi, I saved image files, using the ftp protocol in a specific folder, creating the name and content, all through flow.

Now I need, still using flow, to do the reverse process, then, always using FTP, read the contents of the file through the file name.

The file name is: C15568 Ve-1 and the content is: data: image / png; base64, iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAeAA .........

I am attaching the image to explain better.

Thank you in advance for your support

    hi @Giovanni1 , the ftp connector allows you to "Get file content", it will achieve what you wish.

     

    here is an example ftp server with text file in users/user folder

    here is the file, its uploaded to the ftp server

    here is the flow. Get content File : 

    concat('/users/user/', triggerBody()['text'])

    rubin_boer_1-1640807250477.png

    in the app the flow is called

    rubin_boer_2-1640807351217.png

     

    as you can see the filname is passed and the response is the contect.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Thank you so much

    It was really useful to me!

    I have only one problem, if I do a search for a file and it doesn't exist on my server, it gives me an error "BadGateway" "Inner error"...

    How can I avoid it?
