Need to read a file only if it is modified using file connector

Question

Hi Team,

How can I use inbound file connector which will read a file from directory only if it is modified since last read? Basically I am trying to read the configuration file only if it is modified. If it is modified then run the flow again.

Thanks & Regards, Vikas Gite

Hi Vikas,

Please go thru the link below, https://forums.mulesoft.com/questions/41156/read-files-which-are-in-read-only-files-using-file.html

As explained in it, if you are using a file connector once the file is read it should be moved to another location otherwise it will keep on polling the same file.

So its not advisable to use file connector for your requirement, try to put some java transformers and get the work done.
