Getting files on the FTP server directory to a local directory

Configure the tFTPGet component to get only the text files on the FTP root directory to a local directory.

Procedure

  1. Double-click the tFTPGet component to open its Basic settings view.
  2. Specify the connection details required to access the FTP server. In this example, select the Use an existing connection check box and from the Component list drop-down list displayed, select the connection component to reuse its connection details you have already defined.
  3. In the Local directory field, specify the local directory to which the files and folders will be downloaded. In this example, it is D:/FtpDownloads.
  4. In the Remote directory field, specify the FTP server directory under which the files and folders will be downloaded. In this example, it is /, which means the root directory of the FTP server.
  5. In the Files table, click the [+] button to add a line and in the Filemask column field, enter *.txt between double quotation marks to get only the text files on the FTP directory to the local directory.
