Move files from Box to a Local Drive

Joni1 — Mon, 15 Jul 2024 21:38:14 GMT

I need to move files from a Box folder to a local drive. This should be an easy process with 3 components: tBoxv2Connection, tBoxv2List, tBoxv2Get. I created the integration with configurations to match the components in this example https://help.talend.com/en-US/components/8.0/box/tboxconnection-tboxput-tboxget-configuring-components-standard-component

I can run the connection and list to return a list of files in the box folder. I've tried the Get component using the folder path in box or the box file ID. I'm simply dropping the file in "C:/Test".

I finally broke down and simply hardcoded the file paths in both fields of the Get component and got this error message: "org.talend.components.box.get.BoxGet- A problem occurred during reading data from Box"

Any idea what is causing this issue?

I found the answer. In the documentation, for tBoxv2Get, the Local path to file box only has the path listed. It did not show the file name as part of the path. When I add the file name, for example "C:/Test/MyFile.csv", the component works. You can even rename the file. Hope this helps anyone else getting stuck on this component.
