How to replace wildcard in the load script

Daniel77 — Tue, 27 Jan 2026 10:45:26 GMT

Hi,

I finally made the move to SAAS, look at my first script and found for the SFTP (maybe other connectors) i cannot load *.xlsx from a folder. then it seems the wildcard load has been disabled in Saas.

I am looking to load hundreds of files in the same format with different timestamp, so the wildcard works perfectly.

Is there a solution to get the same result as the wildcard in the load script?

thank you

Daniel

Hi @Daniel77 ,

you might able to get the list of files to load using the "For each..." statement.
