Upload File node - how to write to a collection

kinshasa
over 7 years ago

Hello Experts,

7.1.1

How can I upload a CSV file directly into a collection in WD? I created a single row collection and selected the "Upload Target" as Collection, and selected my collection. After the upload, I could see the collection had data in it but it looked like a big hash instead of plain text.

The aim is to read the contents of the CSV into a collection. I can also upload the file to a server and invoke an event which will then read the file into a temporary table, but then I don't know how to tell WD that the data is now ready in the tables to be read and the collection can be loaded.

Any tips?

Thanks

Kin

    I think a code literal where you can write c# code will help you best.
    The field is blob, like it would be in the database.
    There is no parser to determine and handle the input of a file. We do have that only for XML (getFromXML() is the function you would need).
