    Question regarding file names and special characters

    Q: Question regarding file names and special characters. I am currently working on my project moving files between our Windows fileshare and a now Windows destination via SFTP.  So far so good, but when I have a file as a source in our Windows fileshare that has special characters like ä, ö, ü, the transmission of the files get an error stating that the host filesystem does not allow such characters as file names.

    Is there any way to move the files and rename the file names during the move ? e.g. if the file contains such a special character, it should be renamed like this

    ä -> ae

    ü -> ue

    ö-> oe

    Feedback Customer: “Disgregard my email I found it”

    A: The customer used the file rename option in their SFTP Destination setup to replace ä with ae, ü with ue and ö with oe.

    Rename files before they are delivered to destination

    Q: For a particular transfer job, we have a need to rename files before they are delivered to destination. What we really need is to append the time and data to the file name before file extension. Can you please let me know how can I use this option efficiently to achieve what I am looking for. Example

    Actual file name: Data0018.dat

    Final file name at destination: Data0018<hhmmmmddyyyy>.dat

    Test setup of customer:

    Rename a file when it is sent to the destination

    Q: We are trying to rename a file when it is sent to the destination. I am struggling to make this work.  I have renamed files in the past when they have an extension already however these files do not have an extension. For example we want to move file test (no ext) to a new folder and add .dat to the end so the file in the new folder is called test.dat

    A: The Destination has a File Rename option which uses Regular Expressions

    Please have a look at the following screenshot:

    RegEx:  (.*)

    Replacement:  \1.dat
