Hi, It seems that file monitor functionality fails when using spring properties via BridgePropertyPlaceholderConfigurer.
When directory and filename are explicitly configured in the URI file the route works fine - file is being picked up on changes --- route --- <from uri="file:target/export?fileName=continousExport.csv&noop=true&idempotentKey=${file:name}-${file:modified}" /> <to uri="stream:out" /> When directory and/or filename are referenced by spring properties the file is being read only once, and it is not being picked up on changes. --- route --- <from uri="file:{{export.dir}}?fileName={{export.file}}&noop=true&idempotentKey=${file:name}-${file:modified}" /> <to uri="stream:out" /> --- properties --- export.dir=target/export export.file=continousExport.csv Tested on 2.12.2, 2.12.3 and 2.13.0. Not sure, whether it's a limitation of BridgePropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, bug in endpoint initialisation or something else. It would be great if you could comment on this, before me going to dig into this.
