How to read files when publishing job to talend cloud

[Anonymous]

Hi, i have been working with talend on my pc locally and i have jobs that use the getS3 component that gets a file from s3 and stores it on my pc and then i read that file and store it on aurora db. This was my first time publishing a job to the cloud and when i did i got an error saying that it cannot find the file that the s3get componetn saved because it was saved on a path on my computer.

My question is how can i read files or work with files when i publish my job to the cloud? How do i save the files in the cloud?

What do i put on the file box so that it could work when the job is running on the cloud?

 

Thanks!

Hi @gonzalogtz,

Were you able to get over this issue?

If you did, can you please share the solution? I'm into a similar situation. Im using tdropboxget and it downloads a file to my local machine and when published to cloud ,that path is unknown.

Hi,

You can

1. Upload the file as a resource into the Cloud

2. In the Job, define a context variables:  resource_file_abcabc  ( attention: resource_file_ is key word)

3. Use this variable resource_file_abcabc in the component

4. When creating the task in TMC, assign the parameter resource_file_abcabc to the resource uploaded

OK!
