hi,
I have a requirement where I need to upload a file on incremental basis to a specified location.
So is there a way to upload a text/csv file to cloud storage.Can this be achieved via recurring batch entity. Can we use entities over here ?Or the best way is to write a class with code to upload it to a specific folder.
Is there a way to save the file via the recurring batch , if yes then how can we achieve it
thanks,
VM
It depends on what you want to do with the storage. F&O already uses Azure blob storage for document management; maybe it would meet your needs.
If you want to use a custom one, I see two options:
thanks Martin for the quick reply.
1. ok agreed
2. we do not want to use any other software as it might increase the cost.
So what I wanted to understand is that via the recurring batch API is there a way that the file gets created in csv and gets stored at a defined path.
The client will use that file further to use it in other applications.
I have to also import a file in some case which will be imported from a storage and I will have to download the contents and read it to a table.
The reason I am asking this is just that I want to be sure that I am following the best approach before starting the development.
If you want to create a batch in F&O, you can't the recurring integrations APIs, because that's for the opposite scenario - calling F&O from outside.
Also, what what do you mean from "a defined path". What kind of path?
Thanks Martin

by defined path it can be a sharepoint folder or an azure blob storage path or a public IP address .
Also I would like to ask whether it is possible to save the same file to a public shared location i.e. a folder with access which is a folder on a standalone server.(eg. onpremise server.)
I will also have to register the App on app registration to make this work
You can store file in Azure blob storage, for example, but you won't use a file path to it. You'll use a URL.
Communicating with on-premise servers is technically possible, but usually avoided. You would need open your server for connections from Azure (or use a reverse proxy), you would have to have a service processing the requests and your server would have to be running all the time. Saving data in an Azure storage (blob, file) is easier and usually better.
thanks Martin,
I will write back when I face any further issue.
