Hello,

Please let me know if someone knows a method to loop through all text files in a specified folder in order to execute a process against that file.

We have a scenario where we have several files in a folder that we need to execute an import for.

- Thanks, Kevin

There are probably a couple ways to do it. The first of which would be using the "File - List Files" Task to simply gather a list of the files into its output.

Then, use a "Loop" that woud do a foreach from the output of the previous task (which would be the full path to each file). The Loop could be an execute task that uses the variable as part of the command line or arguments to an 'execute' task

I'm still learning this stuff, but the Loop video is helpful:

Interesting. Thanks for the reply. Do you know which version of VisualCron has that loop functionality? We are currently running 5.3.2 in production.

Started with version 6.0.0 according to the change log.
