FILE BASED TRIGGER IN TMC/TALEND CLOUD

Hi Experts,

Currently we are having a requirement to implement the file based event trigger from Talend Cloud(TMC).

Below is the requirement,

Can anyone please help on this

1) We are having a shared network drive path. Source files will be placed in this shared drive path.

2) As soon as the files has been placed in this source folder, the Tasks deployed in my Talend Management Console has to be triggered.

3) I need to achieve this scenario by without using the twaitforfile component

Hello,

Is there any specific requirement for achieving this scenario by without using the twaitforfile component? You do not need a file watcher? 

It is not planned to start jobs from File Trigger from TMC and there are other best practices in a Cloud environment, leveraging Cloud file hosting services like AWS S3 to trigger a webhook or API call, or using components to detect a file presence (in a route) for examples (cf https://community.talend.com/s/article/Using-file-triggers-in-Talend-Cloud-QSSln). This way, you need to use twaitforfile component.

There is also an azure function to trigger talend cloud jobs from our community knowledge.

Please have a look at this KB article about: https://community.talend.com/s/article/Using-Azure-Functions-to-trigger-Talend-Cloud-Jobs-dHthJ

Hope it helps.

 

Best regards

Sabrina
