Hello All, We need to pull the some 3rd Party data into Qlikview to fulfill my requirements.

The external server have the ziped folder having all 80 csv files. So I need to pull data from those files. How Can I pull the External server ziped folder ?

Is it possible or what is the best way ?

Linux has a wide range of possible ftp server packages. A QlikView load script can connect directly to such a server using the ftp protocol (in script editor, check the "Use FTP" checkbox and click the Table Files... button. You'll get a dialog where you can enter credentials and all). Tie the two together.

... or your could use something like Samba on your Linux box to present a Linux mount / folder as a Windows UNC Share via SMB.
